German Chocolate Cake Smoothie

This week is my birthday week. Growing up my mom would lovingly make me the birthday cake of my choice. Though there were several cakes she made that I loved, German Chocolate was a usual pick and favorite. In honor of birthday week and the fond memories I have of birthdays growing up, I have created a healthy spin on a classic favorite. My German Chocolate Cake Smoothie is a great way to celebrate! 

German Chocolate Cake Smoothie 
  • 1.5 frozen bananas
  • 1/4 of an avocado
  • large handful of greens
  • 1 cup of coconut milk
  • 1 Tablespoon cacao powder
  • 1/2 Tablespoon maca
  • 1 Tablespoon coconut butter
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup raw pecans
  • 2 Tablespoons unsweetened shredded coconut
  • optional:1-2 dates if you feel you need additional sweetness

  1. Add bananas, avocado, greens, cacao powder, maca, coconut butter, vanilla extract, and milk to a high speed blender and blend until smooth.
  2. Reduce speed on blender and add in pecans and coconut. I like having texture to my smoothies so I only blend slightly. If you like yours smooth, blend until well incorporated.
