To make this smoothie, simply combine all ingredients in a high-speed blender and blend until smooth.
Notes
If you need to make a substitution for the dates, you can try using raisins or dried apricots. Dates are really great though because they have a ton of natural sweetness inherent in them which allows you to avoid having to include added sugarI prefer old-fashioned oats or quick oats in this recipe. Avoid steel-cut oats as they will be a bit too chewyAs for the oats, feel free to use quick-cooking oats or even oat bran if that's what you have on hand. Just be sure to adjust the measurement accordingly.If you're not a fan of almond milk, any other type of plant-based milk will work just fine.If you find that it's too thick, simply add more liquid until it reaches your desired consistency. And if it's too sweet for your taste, add a squeeze of fresh lemon juiceAdd a good protein powder if you need to use this smoothie as a post-workout recovery option. Other add-ins to consider include chia seeds, flax seeds, hemp seeds, and pumpkin seeds.If you want a creamier smoothie greek yogurt helps. For a more indulgent smoothie go with cacao nibs combo with the yogurt.For a more refreshing element, I'll add some coconut water.
