The Bulletproof Coffee Recipe
The quickest win I’ve encountered for weight loss and lowering blood sugar is called Bulletproof Coffee. Bulletproof is a brand, but it’s also a way to describe a recipe. I’m using the term in the recipe sense. You can buy everything you need either at the grocery store on on Amazon. This is the Bulletproof Coffee recipe.
The ingredients for Bulletproof Coffee
You’ll need 3 ingredients that need to meet exact specifications.
1. Kerrygold unsalted grass fed butter
The butter must be 100% grass fed. Kerrygold unsalted butter is grass fed and available in many grocery stores.
It is vital that you do not substitute ingredients! Substituting non grass fed butter or adding creamer or sugar will sabotage your results.
2. MiCkey T™ Eight™ Pure C-8 Caprylic Acid
32 oz is enough for around a month or a little more. It’s replacing the cost of whatever you were previously eating for breakfast.
- Buy MiCkey T™ Eight™ on Amazon. It’s only sold on Amazon.
- My review of all available brands. There’s more than one brand available.
- Why I recommend pure C8 instead of regular MCT oil or coconut oil
3. Your favorite coffee – preferably organic
If you like coffee but it causes tummy discomfort or jitters, you may be mold sensitive. I recommend the Bulletproof brand of coffee in this case, as they specialize in selling mold-free coffee.
Kitchen items needed for Bulletproof Coffee
- An electric blender or hand whisk narrow enough to fit into a mug – The device only has to be capable of mixing coffee and butter info a froth. It does NOT require enough torque to flip a bulldozer. If using a blender, try to get one made primarily of glass.
- a regular table knife to slice the butter
- a stainless steel tablespoon
- a glass, ceramic or stainless steel mug that can hold 16 oz of coffee or tea. Do NOT use styrofoam unless you want to clean bulletproof coffee off the floor.
Steps to prepare for Bulletproof Coffee
- Slice off 1 tbsp of butter and put it in the blender. In case you are new to butter, there are markings on the wrapping. I prefer 2 tbsp, but recommend you start at 1 tbsp and see if you actually need more to keep from feeling hungry before lunch.
- Pour 1-2 tbsp of MiCkey T™ Eight™ oil. I highly recommend starting no higher than 1 tbsp and working your way up to 2. This is to avoid the slight possibility of “disaster pants”.
- Dump 16 oz of hot coffee or tea into the blender.
- Blend for about 10-20 seconds in a blender. When traveling, I sometimes shake it hard in a travel mug (Release the pressure after the first couple shakes!). Blending is an important step that improves bioavailability, texture, flavor and enjoyment.
- Pour into a mug and enjoy!
Later in the morning, if you feel hungry, drink a cup of back coffee without the butter and MCT oil.
Bulletproof Coffee replaces breakfast!
Do not eat other food with Bulletproof Coffee! The coffee mixture will replace breakfast entirely. This is critical as eating along with Bulletproof coffee will, in nearly all cases, result in weight gain instead of weight loss. You won’t feel hungry either. I have another post that geeks out on how and why it works.
What to expect from Bulletproof Coffee
- Fat loss at a rate of about 2-4 lbs per week.
- No mid-morning hunger or energy crash (may take a day or two for your body to get with the program)
- Improved mental focus through the morning. There’s a reason the MiCkey T™ Eight™ motto is “Brain on Fire”. Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCT) provide your brain with a stable energy source (ketones) that fosters concentration. Many find it easier to get into a flow state and describe the feeling as “in the zone”.
- Replacing clothing with smaller sizes is an expense to prepare for.
My larger goal is to introduce you to a world of upgrades like this that can help you improve your performance at everything and also avoid diseases like cancer, diabetes, Alzheimers and Parkinson’s. If getting back into your skinny jeans motivates you to get started, then awesome! You can read my entire Wellness Repair Plan here.

Is this purely for weight loss or can this be your everyday regular morning breakfast?
Hi Pierre!
It has benefits in both scenarios! I still drink Bulletproof coffee daily for breakfast. I’m one of those that gets the nice mental focus from it, so it’s a keeper.
I am not a breakfast person so this works for me .. how many hours after drinking the bullet coffee should you have lunch?
Hi Irma!
A successful meal should leave you satisfied for 4-5 hours. Many report the BP coffee blend will stave off hunger for more than that. I generally get about 6-7 hours without feeling hungry. If you get hungry sooner than 4 hours, it’s okay. It just means some detective work is in order to discover why.
Blessing and thanks for stopping by!
