Vegan Chocolate Avocado Smoothie
This ultra-creamy, dairy-free smoothie uses ripe avocado for a silky texture and healthy fats, paired with rich cocoa for a decadent breakfast that tastes like chocolate mousse.
Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 medium ripe avocado pitted and peeled
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk or any plant-based milk
- 2 frozen bananas broken into chunks
- 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder high quality for best flavor
- 3 tbsp pure maple syrup adjust to preferred sweetness
- 1 tsp vanilla extract pure extract preferred
- 1 pinch sea salt to enhance chocolate flavor
- 0.5 cup ice cubes optional, for extra frostiness
Notes
Storage: This smoothie is best enjoyed immediately. If saving for later, store in an airtight jar for up to 24 hours; the avocado may cause slight thickening, so shake well before drinking. Substitution: Use 2-3 Medjool dates instead of maple syrup for a whole-food sweetener option.
