Ingredients
Directions
Blend the smoothie base ingredients until mostly smooth. You may have some small pieces of dates in there which can make it delicious unless you want it really smooth — then keep blending. Add 1–2 tablespoons of plant-based milk at a time until the desired consistency is reached for a smoothie bowl.
Divide between two bowls.
Sprinkle cacao nibs, if using, sesame seeds, and rolled oats on top, dividing the toppings between the two bowls.
Chef's Notes
Substitutions
Use chia seeds in place of hemp seeds (you might need more liquid as the chia will absorb quite a bit).
Use almond butter, peanut butter, or cashew butter in place of tahini.
Substitute another leafy green of choice in place of spinach, like romaine or kale.
Instead of cacao nibs, use unsweetened shredded coconut.
Substitute sunflower, pumpkin seeds, or chia seeds in place of sesame seeds.
Prep Ahead
Prepare the base ahead of time and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days before serving. Note that you may have to reblend and add more milk or water to reach the desired consistency.
Storage
Store leftover base, without the toppings, in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
