Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond milk freeze 1.5 cups
  • 2 bananas
  • ¼ cup Tahini
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Vegan cool whip for serving
  • Crushed cookie for serving
  • strawberries for serving

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Pour 1.5 cups almondmilk into an empty ice-cube tray; freeze 4 hours or overnight.
  2. When ready to make the milkshake, pour the remaining half cup almond milk into a high speed blender, followed by the bananas, tahini and cinnamon. Blend until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.
  3. Divide evenly among two glasses and top with cool whip, crushed biscuits and maraschino cherry, if desired.

Notes

  • Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight mason jar. It will stay fresh for up to 24 hours. But ideally, it's best to consume immediately after making.
  • Substitutes: For best results, follow the recipe as is. However here are some common substitutes that would work well in this recipe.
  • Equipment: I make my smoothies in my Vitamix. It has a "smoothie" button so it does all the work for me until the ingredients are well blended.
  • * Please note the nutrition label does not include any toppings.
  • Instead of almond milk, you can use any other plant-based milk to keep this vegan, or use regular or 2% milk. You can also use any type of yogurt you'd like.
  • To replace the banana, I would highly recommend 2-3 dates. You can also replace it with other fruits like pear or mango.
