Description

Pear protein shake with frozen pear, avocado, leafy greens, and cinnamon lightly sweetened with Medjool dates. Enjoy for breakfast or post-workout fuel.


Ingredients

  • 2 medium pears, cored and sliced (frozen preferred for thicker shakes)
  • 2 cup unsweetened almond milk (+more as needed to reach desired consistency)
  • 23 Medjool dates, to taste
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • pinch of powdered ginger
  • 2 big handfuls of frozen spinach
  • 1/2 small avocado or 1/4 medium
  • 2 scoops vanilla protein powder
  • Bob’s Red Mill Coconut Spice Pan-Baked Granola

Instructions

  1. Add all ingredients except the granola to a high speed blender and process until smooth and creamy. Add more almond milk to reach your desired consistency.
  2. Divide mixture between two glasses and top with granola and more cinnamon.
  3. Enjoy immediately!

Notes

Freeze your pears and spinach in advance if you want thicker shakes.

Shakes can be made with fresh pear and spinach by adding up to 1/2 cup of ice instead.
