High-Protein Carrot Cake Smoothie

Creamy, spiced, and nourishing.

This Carrot Cake Smoothie tastes like dessert but works like fuel. Creamy, spiced, and naturally sweetened with banana and dates, it blends vanilla protein and collagen with Greek yoghurt and oats for a satisfying boost of protein and fibre. Freshly grated carrot adds that signature carrot-cake flavour, while cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla bring the cozy, bakery-style finish — all in a glass you can enjoy every day.
