These smoothie magnums are the perfect snack to keep you cool while boosting your plant point intake. The banana and avocado create a deliciously creamy texture rich in fibre and healthy fats. The chocolate coating not only adds a satisfying crunch but also provides additional polyphenols for added health benefits.

Ingredients

FILLING

  • 1 cup plain yoghurt (we used Bio&Me Original Kefir Yoghurt)
  • ⅓ cup cashew butter (or nut butter of choice)
  • ¼ cup medjool dates, pitted & chopped
  • 1 banana
  • ¼ cup milk of choice (we used almond milk)
  • ½ avocado

TOPPINGS

  • 180g dark chocolate, roughly chopped (ideally 70-85%)
  • No added sugar granola (we used Bio&Me Cashew & Almond Granola) (optional)
  • Mixed nuts (optional)

Method

  1. Add the filling ingredients to a blender and blitz until completely smooth.
  2. Pour into silicone ice cream moulds (or an ice-cube tray) and insert the sticks provided or a wooden ice lolly stick.
  3. Place flat in the freezer for an hour or until frozen.
  4. Place the chocolate in a heat proof mixing bowl and melt by either placing over a saucepan of simmering water or heating in the microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring regularly.
  5. Once the chocolate has melted, remove moulds from the freezer and dip in the chocolate. Sprinkle with granola or mixed nuts and leave to set.
