CARROT CAKE SMOOTHIE
This healthy Carrot Cake Smoothie is made with lots of fresh
carrots and delicious traditional carrot cake spices.
Prep: 5 mins

1 medium banana, peeled, diced and frozen
1 cup diced carrots* (about 2 med.sized carrots), peeled
2/3 cup almond milk
1/2 cup plain or vanilla Greek yogurt
2 teaspoons maple syrup (or your desired sweetener)
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
pinch of ground ginger
pinch of ground nutmeg
optional toppings: extra grated carrots, toasted coconut, toasted
walnuts

Add all ingredients to a blender and pulse for 30-60 seconds until
smooth. If the smoothie is too thick, add an extra 1/4 cup of
almond milk to thin it out.

Serve immediately, garnished with optional toppings if desired.

*If you don't have a high-powered blender, you may have to blend
this smoothie for a bit longer. Or you could also shave the carrots
(instead of dicing them) beforehand to make blending easier.
