This Chocolate Coffee Shake Is Not Only Vegan But Super Tasty Too!
As a vegan, finding delicious plant-based alternatives to everyone’s favorite chocolate milkshake can feel like the ultimate mission impossible. That is all about to change thanks to Hanna Sunderani, the famous author of The Two Spoons Cookbook, and her infamous French-inspired chocolate coffee shake recipe. You heard that right! Grab your apron, and let’s get shakin’!
Chocolate Coffee Shake: The Ingredients
The secret behind this shake’s velvety smooth texture and rich taste is the mixture of oat milk, almond butter, and Medjool dates that give it a sweet and creamy finish that truly pampers the senses. Plus, the banana, oats, and espresso shot make sure to give you the right healthy boost, perfect to start your day. If you’re the kind of person that likes to skip breakfast, this shake will make it almost impossible not to fall in love with morning meals!
To Make One Shake, You’ll Need the Following Ingredients:
- 1 large frozen banana, chopped
- 1 cup unsweetened oat milk
- 1 shot espresso
- ¼ cup gluten-free rolled oats
- Vegan whipped cream
- Vegan chocolate sauce
- 1 Medjool date, pitted
- 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons almond butter
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- A pinch of sea salt
- 3 to 5 ice cubes
How to Make the Shake
Grab a blender and combine the oats, frozen banana, oat milk, express shot, date, cocoa powder, almond butter, cinnamon, salt, and three ice cubes. Blend all ingredients until smooth. If you want to make your shake thicker and colder, add all five ice cubes.
Pour this chocolaty perfection into a large tall glass. Top it with vegan whipped cream and drizzle generously (no one will blame you!) with vegan chocolate sauce. Feel free to sprinkle in some shaved chocolate curls to make things extra delicious. Enjoy your shake for breakfast, dinner, and why not even a midnight snack! Except, maybe you’d want to skip the espresso shot if you’re having your shake late in the evening.
