This smoothie is easily disguised as something out of a perfect morning pastry dream – except without the refined sugar. Vivid purple in colour and coming together in minutes, it’s a great option for a morning, lunch, or afternoon snack.
ingredients
- 1 cup of frozen wild blueberries
- 1/2 of a frozen banana
- 1/3 cup of rolled oats
- 2 medjool dates, pitted
- 3/4 cup of almond milk
- 1/2 tbsp almond butter
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tbsp of milled flaxseed
- 1 tbsp of hemp seeds
directions
-
Combine all the ingredients in your blender and start blending on low for 30 seconds, blending for another two minutes on medium-high.
-
If your smoothie is too thick, feel free to add additional liquid such as more almond milk, water, or even black coffee. Pour into a mason jar or glass and enjoy.
notes
- If they aren’t your preference, swapping out blueberries for strawberries or raspberries is a nice way to switch things up!
- If you wish, feel free to use peanut butter, cashew butter, or pumpkin seed butter instead of almond butter.
