- 1 scoop protein powder
Spices
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- ¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon ground cloves
Sweeteners
- 1 tablespoon unsulphured molasses
- 1-2 teaspoons maple syrup
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather all ingredients, ensuring the cauliflower is frozen and riced for a smooth texture and the protein powder is ready to blend.
- Blend Ingredients: Add riced cauliflower, ground ginger, cinnamon, cloves, molasses, milk, protein powder, and maple syrup into a high-speed blender.
- Process Smoothie: Blend all the ingredients until smooth and fully combined. This should take about 30-60 seconds depending on your blender.

Notes
- Using frozen riced cauliflower provides a creamy texture without overpowering the flavor and adds fiber.
- Unsulphured molasses adds depth and iron content to the smoothie.
- You can substitute any milk of your choice, such as almond, oat, cow’s, or soy milk, depending on dietary preferences.
- Adjust sweetness with maple syrup or other sweeteners to taste.
- Adding ice is optional but recommended for thicker texture without diluting taste too much.
- This smoothie is a great way to enjoy gingerbread flavors without baking.
