Vegan Eggnog Smoothie

Hey, friends! It’s the most wonderful time of the year, as they say. And what better way to celebrate than with a vegan eggnog smoothie?

Vegan eggnog smoothie: a very healthy variation on a traditional favourite!

Do you ever feel left out when you see those beautiful glass bottles of cow’s milk-based eggnog in the grocery store? I did too, until I devised my own methods of making eggnog in plant-powerful fashion!

This eggnog smoothie is even virtuous from a nutritional standpoint. Not only does it contain potassium and fibre-rich bananas and dates, it also has a healthy dose of omega 3 and omega 6 (worry not- the good kind!) thrown into the mix thanks to hemp and flax! Cinnamon and nutmeg deliver the classic warming flavour of a traditional eggnog, and a little spoonful of almond butter makes it soooo creamy. Oooh la luscious!

I love making this for breakfast the odd morning when I want something cold. It also makes a lovely snack! Serving it with seasonal fruit, like kiwi and pomegranate, makes it even more festive. 😉

We’re going to be taking it verrry easy over the holidays. We’ve opted not to exchange gifts at all this year and instead embrace togetherness- my favourite! I’ll be posting more recipes in the coming days as work winds down and I settle in to a more relaxed routine before school starts up again early in January!

Be well, friends, and if you make this recipe, don’t forget to tag your creation with #holistcallie on Instagram!
