Perfect for post workout, on the go breakfast or as an afternoon pick me up. I love using this smoothie as a base for a nutritious breakfast bowl with extra chopped banana mixed through the smoothie and topped with my homemade granola and a dollop of pot set biodynamic or goats milk yogurt.

You can adjust some of the flavours according to your individual taste preference. I’m a bit of a cinnamon lover so tend to lean towards the 1 heaped tsp end and for those with a sweet tooth add an extra date or 2.

 

Recipe:

1 cup of chosen milk (I love it with either almond or coconut milk)

1/2 cup filtered water

1 frozen banana

2-3 medjool dates, pitted

1 tbs pot set organic yogurt (optional)

1 serving of a natural protein powder

1 tbs maca powder (optional)

1/2-1  tsp cinnamon

1-2 tbs chia seeds

1 tsp vanilla extract

8-10 ice cubes

 

Blend all the ingredients together and top with desired extras (chia seeds, pepitas, yogurt, coconut, sliced banana, cinnamon, nuts)

Enjoy!
