Equipment

Blender

Ingredients

1 cup plant-based milk
½ packet silken tofu approximately 8 oz.
2 cups frozen cherries about 12 oz.
½ frozen banana ripe
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Optional Prep:

To infuse the silken tofu with extra vanilla flavor, place in a container and mix in 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.

Directions:

To a blender, add the dairy-free milk, silken tofu, cherries, banana, and vanilla (if you did not infuse it ahead of time). Blend for one minute or until smooth and creamy.
Pour the finished smoothie into four 8 oz. or two 16 oz. glasses. Garnish with fresh cherries on a fancy toothpick, if desired.

Notes

Select Sweet, Not Sour - Be careful to choose sweet and not sour cherries. If you prefer a tart smoothie, you could use 1 cup sour cherries and 1 large frozen banana instead.
Not Sweet Enough? - Use sweetened, instead of unsweetened dairy-free milk. Or, feel free to add a tablespoon or more of a sweetener of your choice or a couple of soaked, pitted dates to the smoothie.
