Ingredients

1-3 organic medjool pitted dates depending on preferred sweetness
1/3 cup of organic pureed pumpkin (NOT pumpkin pie filling)
2 cups of grass-fed raw milk from your local farmer
1 scoop of vanilla protein powder
1 scoop of unflavored collagen powder (optional)
2 tablespoons of organic sprouted pumpkin seeds
1/2 tablespoon of organic maca powder
1/2 teaspoon of Redmond Real Salt
Pinch of organic ground cinnamon
A sprinkle of organic ground ginger
A sprinkle of organic ground nutmeg
1 head of a clove, removed from the bud and crushed by hand (or a tiny pinch of ground cloves)
Materials
Blender
Teapot or a way to boil water on stove

Directions

Boil filtered water in a teapot or on the stove to soak the dates. While water is boiling, place the dates in a cup or mug. Once the water reaches temperature (I set my teapot to 200°F), pour it over the dates until it just covers them. Let sit for 5 minutes.
Add all remaining ingredients to blender.
Once dates have sat in the hot water for 5 minutes, drain the water in the sink, and add the dates to the blender (it’s okay if a little of the water ends up in the blender, too).
Blend and enjoy!

Notes

If you’d like the smoothie to be even sweeter, try adding in 1/4 to 1/2 of a frozen banana. Peel and break a banana into chunks the night before and place in a freezer safe bag to freeze overnight.
If you’d like to add coffee, make the coffee the night before and let it sit in the fridge overnight. Remove one cup of milk from the recipe if you add a cup of coffee to make sure it’s not too much liquid.
Salt is so important because it brings out the flavor of sweetness in the smoothie.
