Raspberry Smoothie (Creamy, High Protein & Ready in 5 Minutes!)
This raspberry smoothie is creamy, bursting with real berry flavor, and packed with protein from almond butter and hemp seeds — no chalky protein powder required (though you can add some!). Vegan-friendly, no sugar added, and ready in 5 minutes.
Ingredients
- ¾ cup milk dairy or unsweetened non-dairy
- ½ cup fresh or frozen raspberries
- ½ cup fresh or frozen strawberries
- ½ fresh or frozen banana
- 1 large pitted date or 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon hemp seeds
- 1 tablespoon almond butter
- Handful of ice
- 1 scoop vanilla or plain protein powder optional
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to the blender in the order listed.
- Blend on HIGH for at least 60 seconds until completely smooth and creamy.
- Taste and adjust — more milk to loosen, more frozen banana for thickness, more date or maple syrup for sweetness.
- Pour into glasses and serve immediately.
Notes
- For best texture: Use at least 2 frozen fruits — frozen banana + raspberries, frozen raspberries + strawberries, or frozen banana + strawberries. All frozen = thickest result.
- Liquid first — always add milk before frozen fruit to protect the blade.
- Blend 60 seconds — a full minute on high eliminates raspberry seed chunks.
- Make smoothie packs — portion all ingredients except milk into freezer bags. Dump + blend when ready.
- Protein powder — add 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder to boost to 25–30g protein per blender (12–15g per glass).
- Storage — best fresh; refrigerate up to 24 hours. To freeze, pour into ice cube trays, freeze solid, transfer to a freezer-safe bag, and reblend cubes with a splash of milk when ready to drink.
