Description
A creamy, decadent, and healthy 5-ingredient chocolate avocado smoothie perfect for a quick breakfast or a guilt-free treat.
Ingredients
1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
1/2 ripe avocado, pitted and peeled
1 frozen banana, sliced
2 tablespoons raw cacao powder
1-2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup for vegan)
Instructions
Step 1: Gather all your ingredients. Ensure your banana is frozen solid for the best consistency. Prepare your avocado by halving it and removing the pit.
Step 2: Pour the unsweetened vanilla almond milk into your blender. Next, add the prepared avocado, frozen banana pieces, raw cacao powder, and honey.
Step 3: Secure the blender lid firmly. Start blending on a low speed, gradually increasing the speed to high until all ingredients are completely combined and the mixture is incredibly smooth and creamy. If needed, pause and scrape down the sides to ensure even blending.
Step 4: Once smooth, pour your indulgent chocolate avocado smoothie into a serving glass. Serve immediately and enjoy every healthy, delicious sip!
Notes
For a vegan version, simply swap honey for maple syrup or agave nectar. Add a handful of spinach for extra greens without altering the taste.
