Healthy Vegan Cake Shake

An easy 5-minute healthy vegan cake shake! It tastes deliciously indulgent like vanilla cake batter but is actually made with healthy ingredients and has over 12 grams protein.

This is such an awesome (healthier!) treat with over 12g protein and just 6 simple ingredients.

This was a really fun recipe to test.

It took a few trials to get it right, but I definitely heard no complaints from my husband or 5 year old daughter (my official taste testers) as I overflowed them with my best attempts at cake-tasting drinks this past month.

I played around with several variations and ingredients and we all finally agreed this was the winner.

The almond butter packs 6 grams of protein, and there's another 6 grams from the soy milk.

So it tastes deliciously indulgent, yet has healthy ingredients and is pleasantly filling.

Serving

Feel free to make it a bit more festive with some Coco Whip & vegan sprinkles if you would like!

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup organic soy milk
• 1 very ripe banana (frozen recommended)
• 1 3/4 Tbsp. almond butter
• 1 Tbsp. pure maple syrup
• 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract
• 1/8 tsp. pure almond extract
• Optional toppings: coconut whipped cream (coco whip!) and vegan sprinkles (I use Let’s Do Organic Sprinkelz confetti)

Instructions

• Add all ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth.
• Top with coco whip and sprinkles before serving if desired.

Notes

Almond extract: This is strong, so it only takes a few drops otherwise it will overpower the smoothie.

Milk: I use plain, unsweetened soy milk. So if you use sweetened and/or vanilla-flavored, feel free to adjust the maple syrup and vanilla extract if desired.
