Cinnamon-Bun Smoothie

This yummy, dessert-like shake flavored with cinnamon, vanilla, and nuts is incredibly healthy compared with a smoothie weighed down with milk, cream, and conventional sweeteners. If you’re buying almond milk instead of making it at home—who can be a superchef every day?—look for brands with minimal gums and fillers; they taste cleaner and let the goodness of the nuts shine through.

Serves 1

• 1 cup Raw-mond Milk or other unsweetened almond milk
• 1 cup ice
• ¼ cup chopped walnuts or pecans, soaked and dehydrated
• 2 tablespoons raisins
• ¾ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1 stevia packet or 3 drops stevia sweetener
• ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon, plus more for sprinkling

Combine all of the ingredients in a blender and blend on high speed until smooth. Pour into a glass, sprinkle with cinnamon, and serve immediately.
