UKVegan Crème Brulee Smoothie
Serves 1
5 minute prep time
By Angela Simpson on February 4, 2016
The main flavor that shines through in crème brulee is classic vanilla, and there’s no shortage of that in this smoothie. I’ve used vanilla Vega® Essentials, almond milk, a frozen banana and some cashews to create a smooth, rich and creamy texture like the traditional dessert. Enjoy sipping this crème brulee smoothie out of a glass, or pour it into a bowl and scoop your bites with a spoon.
Ingredients
- 1 scoop Vanilla Vega® Essentials
- 1 cup Silk Vanilla Almondmilk
- 1 banana (frozen if possible)
- 1 pitted date
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 10 full cashews
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 5-6 ice cubes
Preparation
-
Add all ingredients to your blender except for ice and blend until smooth.
-
Toss in a few ice cubes and continue blending until no chunks remain. (Note – too much ice will dilute the flavor, so aim for just 5-6 cubes.)
-
Pour into a glass and enjoy!
