Carrot Cake Smoothie Recipe (dairy-free)
This Carrot Cake Smoothie is dairy-free, tastes just like real carrot cake, and comes together in just 10 minutes or less.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 5 ounces plain, dairy-free yogurt
- 1 large banana frozen
- 1-2 carrots chopped (about ½ - ¾ cup)
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk more if desired
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon molasses
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- handful of ice cubes optional
Optional Toppings:
- coconut flakes
- chopped walnuts
Instructions
- Combine: In a high-speed blender, add 5 ounces plain, dairy-free yogurt, 1 large banana, chopped carrots, 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk, 1 tablespoon maple syrup, 1 teaspoon molasses, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, and ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg.
- Blend: Blend on high until consistency is smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides when needed.
- Taste & Serve: Taste and add additional almond milk (1 tablespoon at at time) to thin it out, add additional maple syrup (1 tablespoon at at time) to sweeten and add handful of ice cubes to thicken. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- Collagen: I have also added collagen to this smoothie and it is really good! You could also adding a protein powder if you wanted!
- Dates: You can also skip the molasses and use a date to help sweeten this too - I would recommend letting your date sit in some hot water for a while before using it so it breaks down more easily in the blender, otherwise you might end up with little date chunks in your smoothie.
- Toppings: You can make this even more decadent if you want my dairy free whipped cream!
- Plain Dairy-Free Yogurt: I used the Silk plain almond milk to make this smoothie! I was excited to find a “plain” dairy-free yogurt and it worked perfectly!
