Enjoy a quick, easy, and creamy date protein shake! This vegan smoothie, with dates, peanut butter, oatmeal, and vanilla protein, is naturally sweet, full of flavor, no sugar added, and ideal for breakfast or a post-workout snack.
Store any leftovers in an airtight jar or bottle in the fridge for up to 2 days. Stir or shake well before drinking and add a splash of dairy-free milk to thin it out.
If your dates are dry soak them in warm water for 5–10 minutes to blend them smoothly.
Use cold milk or ice cubes to keep it extra refreshing.
Use 2 dates instead of 3 if you prefer less sweetness.
Blend longer if you don't have a high-speed blender.
You can swap peanut butter with almond or cashew butter, or use tahini for a nut-free option.
You can substitute pumpkin seeds with chia seeds, flax seeds, or hemp seeds.
