I fancied something a little different this morning! Mondays can be hard enough to get through let alone without coffee!! As you know I generally have a Green Smoothie every morning but checked out my cupboard and fridge for something sweet with a caffeine kick to satisfy my cravings, but also something clean and healthy! And that’s where this Almond Banana Espresso Shake came from!
Ingredients:
- Handful of Ice
- 1 Shot of Espresso
- 3 Dates
- 1 Banana
- 1 large tsp of Almond Butter
- 1 Cup of Almond Milk
- Dash of Vanilla Extract
Method:
Blitz it all in your Nutribullet or Blender and serve over Ice! It’s that easy!
Substitutions:
- Any Nut Milk will do – or Dairy if that’s your preference!
- Peanut or Cashew Butter could work instead of Almond Butter
- I used the Dates and Banana as a sweetener but you could use Agave / Honey or Maple Syrup
Of course using substitutions will alter the taste and the cleanliness of this but do what I did and mess around with the ingredients you have available and see what works for you!
Enjoy!
