I am not a baking person. I suck at baking and often find alternatives to baking. This season we have been craving for strawberry shortcakes.

Hence, Vegan Strawberry Shortcake Protein Smoothie!

I decided to infuse its flavor in a smoothie form so we can enjoy it guiltfree and at the same time consume enough nutrition. This smoothie is easy to blend. However, to make it fancy I have explained it in few extra steps.

My daughter loved it the fancier way. Whereas, we grown ups enjoyed it as is, just out of the blender.

I personally tasted this smoothie with whipped cream just to double check Yashvi’s opinion. I must say it tasted far more delicious with whipped cream. It tasted exactly like strawberry shortcake that satisfied our cravings in a healthier form.

Nutrition facts will vary when you add whipped cream to this smoothie but it is totally worth it.

FAQs for Vegan Strawberry Shortcake Protein Smoothie

  • I made this smoothie without any protein powder. I believe in using natural ingredients so I added protein to it with hemp seeds. Moreover, I don’t like the after taste of the store-bought protein powder.
  • This smoothie tastes best when consumed immediately.

I would highly recommend to enjoy this smoothie with coconut whipped cream. However, if you decide to skip the whipped cream then please free to adjust the taste with your choice of sweetener.
