Place all smoothie ingredients into a blender and process until smooth and creamy.
To serve, pour into a chilled glass/mason jar or bowl and top shredded coconut, crushed walnuts, a pinch of ground cinnamon and a drizzle of maple syrup if desired.

Notes

Note – You could also add in a scoop of protein powder (vanilla or unflavoured would work really well in this recipe) for an extra boost of protein if you’re into that kinda thing – do what you feel baby 🙂
