Vegan Maca Caramel Frap Blended Coffee
Vegan maca caramel frap is super luscious with only dates and banana used as sweetener. Cold brew coffee, healthy fats, and vanilla, so good!
Servings 1
Equipment
Ingredients
- ¼ cup raw cashews, soaked for at least 4 hours in cold water (or 10 minutes in boiling water)
- 2 soft Medjool dates, pitted
- ½ banana, sliced and frozen
- handful of ice cubes
- ½ teaspoon maca powder
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- pinch fine sea salt
- ¼ cup cold brewed coffee
- ¼ cup non-dairy milk
Instructions
- Combine all of the ingredients in an upright blender. Blend the mixture on high until smooth and frothy. Enjoy immediately.
Notes
- I would aim for a richer plant milk, like a coconut based one or even a mixture (like nutpods or similar).
- Also, since you're incorporating raw cashews into this one, I think a high speed blender may be best. I've done this with cashews soaked for 4 hours, and cashews soaked for 10 minutes in boiling water, both with the same results.
- I recommend really soft Medjool dates here because they truly do enhance that "caramel"-like flavour. If yours are on the dry side, just soak them in hot water for 5 minutes before blending.
