This recipe is a rare treat that can be served for either breakfast or dessert. It tastes just like the famous candy bar, but it’s nutritious enough to be your first meal of the day. Here’s how to make a vegan “Snickers” smoothie bowl.
Snickers is a popular chocolate bar made from nougat, peanuts, caramel, and milk chocolate. Snickers is not dairy-free, but this plant-based smoothie bowl replicates the taste.
Erin and Dusty Stanczyk created this recipe for their new cookbook, Happy Healthy Plant-Based Cookbook. It features plant milk, frozen ripe bananas, Medjool dates, cacao powder, as well as some peanut butter and optional vegan chocolate protein powder. It’s very easy to make, and just requires blending the ingredients together and serving them with optional toppings.
