Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • ¾ cup full fat coconut milk from a can
  • ½ cup unsweetened almond milk from a carton
  • 1 navel orange peeled and sections separated
  • 1 tsp pure orange extract
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 scoops collagen peptides sub your favorite protein powder, or omit
  • 2 bananas cut into sections, frozen
  • natural sweetener of choice, optional see Note

Equipment

  • High speed blender

Method
 

  1. Add all of the ingredients in the order listed with the exception of the sweetener to a high speed blender. Blend for 45-60 seconds until combined completely and smooth (if your blender has a "Smoothie" function, use it). Taste. If you prefer sweeter, add 1-2 tbsp sweetener of choice and blend for 10 seconds more to incorporate.
  2. Distribute into two glasses, serve immediately, and enjoy!

Notes

This recipe is plenty sweet for me, especially if you use overripe bananas. However, if you prefer a sweeter treat, simply add a few tablespoons of your favorite sweetener to the blender. Some good vegan options are maple syrup, maple sugar, and coconut sugar. If you are not vegan, local honey is another great option.
