A smoothie that tastes like dessert. This Chocolate Walnut Smoothie is creamy, decadent and SO SO GOOD!

Toasted walnuts take this healthy chocolate smoothie to the next level. It’s pure heaven and super nourishing at the same time. Do you know walnuts are packed with healthy fats (high in omega 3’s), antioxidants and minerals? Cacao powder is also loaded with antioxidants, and I also added a little maca powder for an extra dose of nutrition, but it’s completely optional.

This smoothie is so rich and chocolatey that it can be an energizing breakfast, a sweet snack or a healthy dessert. It’s one of the best ways to start the day and it will keep you energized and full for hours.

Servings 1

### Ingredients

- 1big banana,frozen*
- 1cupunsweetened almond milk
- ¼cuptoasted walnuts,tightly packed**
- 1Tbspcacao powder
- 1tspmaca powder,optional
- 1tspcoconut nectar or maple syrup
- ½tsppure vanilla extract

### Instructions

- Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender and blend until smooth and creamy.
- Enjoy!

### Notes

* Frozen bananas make creamy, delicious smoothies. Bananas need to be frozen for at least 8 hours. I like to keep a stash of frozen bananas in my freezer so I can make smoothies whenever I want (all the time, actually). Peel them, cut them in half, and store them in an airtight container. The riper the bananas, the tastier and sweeter the smoothie. Green bananas = bland smoothies.  
 ** To toast walnuts: preheat oven to 355 F / 180 C. Place raw walnuts on a baking sheet (no oil) and bake for 10 minutes, or until fragrant and golden. Cool down.
