I have used these easily available ingredients which you may buy from any local grocery store. However, I have provided links to few of them here for your convenience.

Ingredients notes:

• hemp milk – even though nay other dairy free milk can be used in this recipe but hemp milk works the best here. Its creamy and higher in protein comparatively and low in calories.
• dates – it high in fiber and a natural sweetener. Moreover, its a great substitute to banana.
• almond butter – I used the one that has no added sugar and no oil and most importantly no flavor. It adds healthy fats to this smoothie recipe.
• hemp seeds – its a vegan superfood that is high in protein and fiber.

How to make almond butter hemp smoothie

Firstly, I combined all the ingredients in a blender and blended it smooth.

Secondly, I poured it in the serving glasses and garnished it with more hempseeds.

Lastly, I served it immediately.

It was an instant hit and family devoured every sip of it.

For me personally, it was a satisfying post workout replenishment.

Sometimes, when I am running out of time I quickly blend this smoothie and fuel myself in the early morning hours.

I also experimented by refrigerating this smoothie for a couple of days. I have to say, it worked out extremely well for me. It only required to be whipped with a spoon.

So, simply enjoy directly from the refrigerator as a make – ahead smoothie.

This cold, buttery and protein smoothie is my all-time favorite beverage.

Expert tips:

• For the best results it is important to blend the crushed ice with the smoothie. However, first blend the smoothie ingredients, then pause and add crushed ice. This would give a nice thick and cold beverage.
• For a smoothie bowl consistency, refrigerate it overnight and treat it like a make-ahead smoothie.

I would highly recommend you to quickly blend and taste it yourself. This smoothie has become my favorite.

I guarantee once you get hooked on to this vegan almond butter hemp smoothie then its going to be a regular in your house as it is in mine.

Moreover, its my kid’s favorite. even though she is not a nutty person yet she loved this smoothie and wants it almost everyday.

Therefore, I am sure your family would love it immensely.

Yashvi relishes this smoothie and it is her favorite after school snack at least 3 times a week 🙂
