Another smoothie recipe from Oh She Glows – vegan, gluten-free, grain-free, no bake/raw, oil-free, refined sugar-free, and soy-freeIngredients for 2 smoothies:
- 2 cups almond milk (see note)
- 2-3 pitted large Medjool dates, to taste
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened Dutch-processed cocoa powder
- 3 tablespoons hulled hemp seed
- 1 large peeled and frozen banana
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 4 large ice cubes
Directions:
- Add all ingredients into a high-speed blender and blend until super smooth.
Tips:
- This recipe yields a fairly thin consistency. If you want a thicker shake-like texture, try reducing the milk to 1.5 cups instead of 2 cups or go wild and add a scoop of your favourite non-dairy ice cream. 2) If your dates are a bit firm or dry, soak them in water for 30-60 minutes before making this smoothie. You can also swap the dates for liquid sweetener if desired. Just reduce the almond milk a bit so it’s not too thin.
