Description
Boost your morning routine with this nutrient-dense strawberry collagen smoothie. Designed to promote skin elasticity and provide sustained energy, this blend uses frozen fruit for a thick, milkshake-like texture without added sugars. The combination of collagen peptides, heart-healthy almond butter, and chia seeds creates a satisfying, antioxidant-rich meal that supports cellular hydration and keeps you feeling full for hours.
Ingredients
1 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 tbsp unflavored collagen peptides
1 tsp almond butter
1 tsp chia seeds
1 medium frozen banana, sliced
1/3 cup frozen organic strawberries
1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 tbsp full-fat coconut yoghurt
Instructions
Place almond milk, collagen powder, almond butter, chia seeds, banana, strawberries, and vanilla extract into a high-speed blender.
Process on high speed for sixty seconds until the mixture is smooth and velvety.
If the blender struggles or the smoothie is too thick, add a small splash of extra almond milk.
Swoosh the coconut yoghurt against the interior walls of your serving glass for an elegant presentation.
Pour the smoothie into the prepared glass and enjoy immediately.
Notes
Grind the chia seeds beforehand if you prefer a perfectly smooth texture rather than a subtle crunch. If you don’t have almond butter, raw cashew butter works as a great substitute. Ensure the coconut yoghurt is full-fat to achieve the best creamy mouthfeel.
