This took a lot of experimenting, but I finally made a homemade Huel shake that’s really close to the smooth texture of the Ready-to-Drink version by using regular powder bags.
Is it fast? Not really.
Is it cheaper? Definitely.
Less plastic waste? Yep.
I like my Huel extra creamy, so here’s the method that worked best for me.
Ingredients
-
300 ml water
-
100 ml oat milk
-
2–4 ice cubes
-
2 scoops of Huel Black
(Huel Black blends smoother and less oaty than Huel White) -
ESN Flavor Powder or another sweetener of choice
-
1 tbsp Greek yoghurt (I used 2% fat)
Instructions
1. Blend the liquid first
Add the following to a high-speed blender:
-
Water
-
Oat milk
-
Ice cubes
Blend until the ice is fully crushed.
This creates a light milkshake-like texture without adding extra calories.
2. Add the remaining ingredients
Add:
-
Huel Black
-
Flavor powder/sweetener
-
Greek yoghurt
The Greek yoghurt helps make the shake smoother and silkier.
(You could also add ingredients like banana or cream for even more creaminess, but that will increase the calories.)
3. Blend thoroughly
Blend everything for at least 45 seconds in a high-speed blender (like a Nutribullet).
4. Chill
Put the shake in the fridge for about 20 minutes.
This helps the texture thicken and smooth out.
5. Final blend
Give it one more quick blend after chilling.
Then drink your heavenly smooth, creamy Huel shake
