Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 tsp black sesame seeds
  • 1 cup of milk of your choice We used Rippl Pea milk or half and half coconut cream and water
  • 1 tbsp tahini
  • 1/2 frozen banana if you don’t have a frozen banana you can do 1/2 a banana a a few ice cubes
  • sweetener of your choice It is sweet enough for us with the banana, but if you like a bit sweeter, we recommend dates, date molasses or coconut sugar. It pairs well with the rich flavor of the black sesame seeds

Method
 

  1. Grind the sesame seeds to a fine powder
  2. Add all ingredients to your blender and mix until well combined
  3. Enjoy!

Notes

We said it was easy!
If you want to increase the nutrition of this shake, here are a few things that you can add:
  • Hemp seeds - adds protein and fiber
  • Flax or chia seeds - be careful here. We recommend enjoying this immediately if you add these ingredients, otherwise you will have an amazing pudding the next day!
  • Cacao powder - super rich, provides energy, and takes the classic chocolate shake to new heights!
