Gingersnap Smoothie

This smoothie combines all the flavors or gingerbread or gingersnaps along with a little kick of fiber and protein all in glass. It’s a spicy little smoothie with a holiday flair.

You can tweak the spices based on your favorite flavor palate.

Ingredients

1/2 cup non-fat Greek yogurt or soy yogurt
1/2 cup light almond milk (I use Silk Almond Light 40)or light milk of choice
1 medium frozen banana
1/4 cup rolled oats
1/2 inch fresh ginger
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp flax seed
1 tsp molasses
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp turmeric

Directions

  1. Add all ingredients to a high speed blender and blend until smooth.

  2. Add 1 1/2-2 cups ice cubes & blend until smooth.

  3. Top with non-fat whipped cream and sprinkle with a shake of cinnamon.

Tips

  • Add more or less ice based on preference

  • Add a cup of greens like kale or spinach for an even healthier version. The color may be greener but the taste will be the same.
