If you love carrot cake, then you will absolutely love this carrot cake-inspired smoothie version. It is packed with real carrots which give it a gorgeous orange hue. Its creaminess comes from the blanched almonds and cauliflower. Cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and vanilla give it an authentic cake flavor.
This smoothie offers two vegetables, plant-based protein, healthy fats and loads of yummy carrot cake flavor!
I love topping this with coconut whipped cream, unsweetened shredded coconut and walnuts or pecans for a carrot cake vibe that feels decadent and nutritious all at once.
