Carrot cake is one of my all time favorite flavors! Since I love smoothie bowls, I had to make a Carrot Cake Smoothie bowl recipe. I love this smoothie bowl because it tastes like a treat, but is packed with fruits and veggies.
If you like carrot cake as much as I do, be sure to check out my Carrot Cake Muffins recipe.
Why I Love This Carrot Cake Smoothie Bowl:
- Takes less than 5 minutes to make!
- It’s packed with fruits and vegetables
- Recipe contains no added sugar
Ingredients:
Banana: Frozen banana is a key ingredient in this recipe. I definitely recommend freezing the banana instead of using a raw banana. Frozen banana will give this smoothie the texture and taste of ice cream!
Carrot: You can’t have a carrot cake smoothie, without carrot! I recommend slicing the carrot thinly using a vegetable peeler prior to blending. This will help the carrot blend evenly in the smoothie mixture.
Frozen Riced Cauliflower: This is my favorite smoothie addition! It adds bulk to the smoothie and gives it a creamy texture, without adding flavor.
Shredded Coconut: This recipe uses a handful of shredded coconut.
Dates: Dates are my favorite sweetener! They taste so naturally sweet and are used to give this recipe an extra bit of sweetness. Make sure to remove the pits from the dates prior to blending.
Almond Milk: Use store bought or make your own almond milk. You can substitute the almond milk with any non-dairy milk.
Spices: Cinnamon and nutmeg are used to add some sweet flavors and really make this smoothie bowl taste like a treat!
How to Make Carrot Cake Smoothie:
- Using a vegetable peeler, remove the outside of the carrot and discard.
- Peel the rest of the carrot using a vegetable peeler. This cuts the carrots into thin ribbons and helps the carrot blend in the smoothie better.
- Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Place the smoothie in a bowl and top with toppings.
