Great nutrition can also make for great-tasting desserts, and this quick-to-prepare non-dairy shake made from nutrient-dense ingredients is proof. Fresh almond milk and raw cacao butter provide the creaminess, coconut palm sugar (or your own favorite natural sweetener) provides the sweetness, and vanilla beans and pecan add a heady fragrance and additional richness.
As for the nutrition, here… Almond milk is rich in assimilable calcium. Raw pecans are a great source of zinc and are well-known for their cholesterol-lowing ability. And raw cacao butter is a good source of essential fatty acids Omega 6 and monounsaturated Omega 9 (oleic acid).
In my kitchen, these are all staples, so to whip this up generally doesn’t require any special trip to the store. Keep vanilla beans and raw cacao butter in your own kitchen, and a good selection of nuts to choose from, and you’ll always have some version of this just a blenderful away!
