Ingredients

  • 300 ml milk of choice (almond milk, oat milk, soy milk, or regular milk)
  • 4 to 5 soft Medjool or Kimia dates, pitted
  • 1/4 cup almond butter
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla protein powder (optional)

Instructions

  1. If the dates are firm, soak them in warm water for 5 minutes, then drain.
  2. Add the milk to a blender jar.

  4. Blend on high speed for 45 to 60 seconds until smooth and creamy.
  5. Taste and adjust sweetness by adding another date if needed.
  6. Pour into glasses and drizzle with extra date syrup if desired.
  7. Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • If date syrup is unavailable, substitute with 1 to 2 additional soft dates.
  • If almond butter is unavailable, use 1/4 cup whole dry roasted almonds and blend thoroughly.
  • This smoothie is best enjoyed fresh but can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours in an airtight container.
  • Shake or re-blend before serving as separation may occur.
  • Use room temperature or slightly warm milk if preferred for easier digestion.
  • To thicken, reduce milk slightly or add a frozen banana.
