Equipment
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups butternut squash roasted, raw, frozen, or pureed
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 cup full fat coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- ½ cup cold water
- Pinch sea salt
Instructions
- Blend all ingredients in a blender for 30 seconds to 1 minute, until smooth. Add more water as needed. Enjoy!
Notes
- To roast the squash, spread out diced butternut squash on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and roast at 400 degrees F for 20-25 minutes. Roasted squash will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for a few days.
- If you are using raw or frozen squash and have an old blender that's not that powerful, you may want to lightly steam it before blending.
- If you do not have a frozen banana, add some ice cubes to make the smoothie colder.
