Ingredients

Ingredients for the Carrot Cake Smoothie

  • 2 medium carrots
  • 1 overripe banana or 1 ripe banana + 1 tsp agave syrup extra
  • 3 T oats
  • 1 T hazelnut butter or almond butter
  • 1 tsp agave syrup
  • 1 cup almond milk
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup crushed ice

Ingredients for the Frosting

  • 3 T cottage cheese
  • 3 T almond milk
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp agave syrup

Instructions

  • Give all the ingredients for the smoothie in a food processor or blender and blend until smooth and frothy
  • Pour in a large glass but leave a little space for the frosting
  • Give all the ingredients for the Frosting in the food processor or blender and blend until smooth and frothy
  • Now spoon the frosting on the smoothie and enjoy

Notes

My blender is too big for the frosting so I use a hand-held blender
For a thicker and cremier smoothie omit the crushed ice and freeze the banana, carrots or almond milk instead
I freeze my almond milk in silicone muffin forms - this works perfect!
