Cinnamon Spice Smoothie Recipe
🥤 What’s in the Cinnamon Spice Protein Smoothie?
âś… 1 Cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
Low in calories and high in vitamin E, almond milk is a fantastic dairy-free alternative that supports skin health and contains healthy fats that may help reduce inflammation.
âś… 1 Scoop Vanilla Protein Powder
Protein helps rebuild muscle, keeps you full longer, and supports a strong metabolism. Choose a clean, high-quality vanilla protein powder—plant-based or whey depending on your dietary needs.
✅ ½ Small Frozen Banana
Bananas add natural sweetness and are rich in potassium, which helps regulate blood pressure and muscle function. The fiber also supports digestive health.
✅ ½ Tsp Cinnamon
This warm spice isn’t just delicious—it’s anti-inflammatory, helps regulate blood sugar levels, and may even support heart health.
✅ ½ Tsp Vanilla Extract
Pure vanilla isn’t just for flavor. It contains small amounts of antioxidants and adds a comforting aroma and taste that ties the whole smoothie together.
✅ ½ Tbsp Chia Seeds
Chia seeds are nutrient-dense superfoods, loaded with omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, and protein. They support heart health, digestion, and energy levels.
🌿 Why This Smoothie Works
This smoothie delivers a powerful combo of healthy fats, fiber, protein, and antioxidants. The cinnamon and chia seeds help fight inflammation while the banana and protein powder keep your energy stable and cravings at bay. It’s creamy, comforting, and incredibly satisfying—all while helping you stay on track with your healthy eating goals.
đź’ˇ Pro Tip:
For extra creaminess and more anti-inflammatory punch, blend it with a few ice cubes and top with a sprinkle of ground flaxseed or a pinch of nutmeg!
