Dairy-Free Strawberry Smoothie
Description
The Dairy-Free Strawberry Smoothie uses fresh strawberries, hemp milk as a dairy alternative, and vegan vanilla protein powder for nutritional protein content, rounded out with dates for natural sweetness and oats for body and texture. Blending all ingredients until smooth results in a creamy, cold drink that balances fruity flavor with mild natural sweetness and protein.
The protein powder type affects the smoothie’s texture due to varying absorption rates; this recipe uses vegan powder, which absorbs more liquid than others. Using frozen strawberries instead of fresh requires adding them last to ensure smooth processing and proper blending.
This smoothie works well as a light meal or supplement, especially for those avoiding dairy. The oats add a slight thickness and chewiness, making it more filling than fruit juice alone.
Ingredients
- 7 strawberries
- 4 ice cubes
- ⅓ cup vegan vanilla protein powder
- ¾ cup hemp milk
- 2 dates
- 2 tbs oats
Instructions
- Add all ingriedents to a high powered blender.
- Process until smooth and combined.
- Pour into a glass, top with your favorites (if using) and enjoy!
Notes
- The choice of protein powder impacts texture; vegan protein powders absorb more liquid than whey.
- If using frozen strawberries, add them last in the blender for smooth processing.
- Add sweeteners or additional ingredients only if desired; the dates provide natural sweetness.
