Hint: To peel fresh ginger, hold firmly in one hand against a cutting board and use the edge of a spoon to gently scrap down removing the skin. Work your way around the ginger until all skin has been removed.

Substitutions

  • Berries - instead of strawberries and blueberries, you can use raspberries, blackberries or any combination of them.
  • Chia seeds- flax seed can be used instead of chia seeds
  • Oats- use old fashioned or quick oats. Be sure to use gluten free certified, if needed.

Variations

  • Spicy - add a bit more ginger for more zing
  • Deluxe - make a smoothie bowl with fresh fruit, granola and/or nuts and seeds
  • Kid friendly - adjust the amount of ginger and maple syrup depending on your little ones' taste.

See this fruit and cream version on my website!

Equipment

You'll need a blender for this smoothie. A high powered blender is preferable to get the smoothest texture.

Storage

If you have any smoothie left over or like to make ahead you can store in the refrigerator for up to a few hours.

You can also pour leftovers into an ice cube mold and freeze for later. Allow to thaw in the refrigerator or pop the cubes into blender with non dairy milk and blend.

Top tip

You can freeze fresh ginger so you always have some on hand. Simply peel the ginger using the method above in the "hint" section, cut into manageable pieces and place in a freezer bag. It will last for months this way.

If you try this recipe, I'd love to know how it turns out! Leave a comment and rating below or snap a pic and tag @weelittlevegans on Instagram so I'll be sure to see it.
