OMG
Get ready for some holy deliciousness. My friend, Courtney, is obsessed with Speculoos spreads and cookies. The one she loves is made of wheat, lots of sugar and corn syrup – not #bewellwitharielleapproved.
So, in celebration of her labor coming up, I made a healthified Speculoos Cookie Butter Smoothie so she can drink it during her last days of pregnancy…and then, as a new mom! Perfect for anyone to eat for breakfast, snack and dessert.
This smoothie is made without refined sugar, and theres no gluten or wheat.
Instead, it’s packed with good-for-you nut butters, healthy sweet dates, a drop of organic vanilla, creamy almond milk, and a dash of special spices to make it taste just like your favorite holiday treat.
I have a feeling that you’re going to love this one!
Make it and post a picture on instagram. Tag me (@bewellwitharielle) and use hastag (#bewellwitharielle) so I can see your creations and possibly re-post it!
