Cook modePrevent screen from turning off

Ingredients

• 3 cups unsweetened soy milk
• ¾ cups silken tofu
• 10 soft pitted Medjool dates or 18 Deglet Noor
• 4 tbsp almond butter
• 3 tbsp cacao powder
• ½ tsp ground cinnamon
• ½ tsp pure vanilla extract (optional)
• ½ tsp salt (optional)

Optional Toppings

• Dried cranberries
• Roasted pumpkin seeds

Instructions

1. Add milk, almond butter, cocoa powder, vanilla, cinnamon, and salt to a blender. Blend until smooth.
2. Add the dates and blend until smooth. To add some texture, blend in pulse mode so that some small chunks still remain. This will be a chunky and thick shake, however feel free to adjust the thickness by adding more milk/water and sweetness by adding a few extra dates if required.
3. Garnish with some roasted pumpkin seeds and dried cranberries. These toppings are optional but recommended for additional chewiness & crunch.
4. Serve immediately, Enjoy!

Personal Note

Typically, not everyone adds nut butter in smoothies or shakes; however, this is an excellent way to boost your protein intake. This shake is my kids' favorite; they could have it at any time of the day :)
