  • Yield

    Serves 1

Ingredients

1/2 cup almond milk (125 milliliters)
1/2 cup chia seeds (2 3/4 ounces)
1 1/2 frozen bananas
1/2 avocado
1 tablespoon raw cacao powder
2 tablespoons maple syrup or raw honey
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
7 fluid ounces coconut water (200 milliliters)
1/2 cup ice
3 1/2 ounces activated almonds (100 grams)
1/2 tablespoon bee pollen (available from health or natural food stores)
1 teaspoon toasted coconut
1 tablespoon goji berries

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Put the almond milk in a jug and add the chia seeds. Stir until the mixture begins to thicken and set aside for 10 minutes.

    Step 2

    Put the bananas, avocado, cacao, maple syrup, cinnamon, coconut water, and ice in a high-speed blender and blend until smooth. Add the almond milk and chia and pulse a few times until just combined. Add a little more ice or frozen banana if you’re after a thicker consistency.
