Snickerdoodle Tahini Date Smoothie

Ingredients

For the date smoothie:
3 pitted large Medjool dates (¼ cup packed pitted Medjool dates)
1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or sub light coconut milk), plus more to thin smoothie if necessary
¾ cup frozen cauliflower
1 tablespoon tahini
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon cinnamon
1 tablespoon cacao powder
1 scoop your favorite protein powder
1 tablespoon flaxseed meal
¼ cup gluten free rolled oats

First soak your pitted dates in 1 cup of very warm water for at least 5 minutes. This will help them soften up and perfect for blending. While the dates are soaking you can get all your other ingredients out, measured and ready.
Next add all ingredients to a high powered blender: pitted dates, almond milk, cauliflower, tahini, vanilla extract and cinnamon. Feel free to add any optional add-ins to your smoothie if you’d like. Blend until smooth, adding more almond milk to thin, if necessary. Pour into a glass and enjoy! Serves 1. Feel free to double the recipe to serve 2.
