Author: Julie Perks Registered Dietitian
Recipe type: Breakfast
Serves: 2
Ingredients
2 carrots, washed and grated (save some for the topping)
½ cup (125ml) plain yoghurt
2 teaspoons honey
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of ground ginger
1 banana, frozen
¼ cup rolled oats
1 TBSP sunflower seeds
Pinch of salt
1 teaspoon of coconut oil
½ apple, cubed
2 tablespoons raisons
Method
Blend the carrots, yoghurt, honey and spices together with the banana and 2 tablespoons of the oats until smooth.
Add some milk if needed to thin it out further
In a pan, melt the oil and toss in the remaining oats, the salt, sunflower seeds and toast until done. Optional here is to add a little drizzle of honey to make this sticky and golden.
Pour your carrot cake smoothie into a bowl and top with apple cubes, raisons, leftover grated carrot and your homemade granola.
Enjoy!
Notes
Difficult to make this FODMAP friendly - but if you want to you'd need to remove the honey, use dairy free milk instead of yoghurt and use gluten free oats, replace the raisins with blueberries! I havent tried this - so let me know if you do!
