This ultra-creamy, low-carb smoothie combines healthy fats from ripe avocado with a hint of vanilla and cinnamon for a satisfying keto breakfast. It is naturally sweetened with monk fruit to keep blood sugar levels stable while providing a velvety texture.
Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 whole ripe avocado pitted and peeled
- 1.5 cups unsweetened almond milk or coconut milk for extra creaminess
- 0.25 cup heavy cream optional for added fat, or use coconut cream
- 2 tbsp monk fruit sweetener powdered or liquid to taste
- 1 tsp vanilla extract pure and unsweetened
- 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon plus extra for garnish
- 1 cup ice cubes adjust for desired thickness
- 1 pinch sea salt to enhance the flavors
Notes
For the best texture, ensure your avocado is soft to the touch but not brown. To make this ahead, blend everything except the ice and store in an airtight jar for up to 24 hours; shake well and pour over ice when ready. You can substitute monk fruit with erythritol or stevia drops. For a protein boost, add one scoop of unflavored or vanilla collagen peptides.
