Tahini Smoothie
Author:A simple Tahini Smoothie with oats, dates, frozen banana (or cauliflower), vanilla, and cinnamon. It's thick, creamy, delicious, and made in minutes!
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons tahini
- 1 medium frozen banana or 1 cup (115g) frozen cauliflower
- heaping ⅓ cup (40 grams) rolled or old-fashioned oats , certified gluten-free if necessary
- 1 to 2 medjool dates
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¾ to 1 cup (180 to 240 ml) soy milk , or other dairy-free milk, but your smoothie will contain less protein
- 1 small pinch sea salt
INSTRUCTIONS
- If your dates aren't supersoft and caramelly, I recommend removing the stones and covering them in hot water while you assemble the rest of the smoothie. This will soften them and make them easier to blend.
- Add the ingredients to a blender. Start with just ¾ cup (180 mls) of milk and add more later if necessary.
- Blend until completely smooth. See how the texture is for you. This smoothie is great served quite thick but if you want it thinner add the rest of the milk and blend again for a couple of seconds.
