Ingredients 

• 1 large ripe frozen banana

• 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp fresh grated ginger
• 1 healthy pinch ground nutmeg
• 1/2 – 1 cup dairy free milk (use less for thicker smoothie, more for thinner smoothie) 
• 1 scoop plain or vanilla protein powder (optional)  - If adding protein powder that’s sweetened, skip the date. 

Method

• Add banana, carrot, date (optional), cinnamon, vanilla, ginger, nutmeg, dairy-free milk and protein powder (optional) to a high speed blender and blend until creamy and smooth.
• Add more dairy-free milk as needed to thin out if needed.
