YES! Rich chocolate … sweet cherries … nutty oats … is your mouth watering yet?
This chocolate cherry pie smoothie tastes like dessert, but it’s actually great for you.
You can use any dairy-free milk you want, but oat milk will make it creamy and smooth.
If you want to increase the protein, add ½ to 1 scoop of chocolate protein powder. It’s delicious either way.
CHOCOLATE-CHERRY PIE SMOOTHIE RECIPE
(Makes 1 smoothie)
● 2 tbsp rolled oats
● ½ cup (120 ml) oat milk
● 1 tsp cocoa powder
● ½ tsp vanilla extract
● 1 cup frozen cherries
● 1 tsp maple syrup or raw honey
● (optional: ½ to 1 scoop chocolate protein powder)
Place the rolled oats in a high-speed blender and pulse until they are well ground. If using protein powder, add it now, and then pulse 1-2 more times to combine.
Add the rest of the ingredients and blend until smooth. If necessary, add more milk to reach the desired consistency.
A delicious, on-the-go, make and take snack!
