I put this recipe together as part of Loving Earth’s Maca Powder Appreciation Week. This is my favourite way to take Maca, other than in a spiced hot chocolate of course. Some people find the taste of Maca a little earthy, but when you combine it with coconut milk and dates, it turns into a sweet caramel malty taste sensation. Try it out – I think you’ll agree!

Ingredients
- 3/4 c coconut milk
- 1 tbsp maca powder
- 2 medjoul dates
- 1 tbsp almond butter
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp vanilla powder
- Pinch sea salt
- 1.5-2 c ice
Instructions
- Whizz it all together, then sprinkled desiccated coconut “snow” on top
- Enjoy in front of the fire, with a spoon if needs be
Equipment
Recipe Notes
- You can also use brazil or cashew nut butter in the place of the almond butter.
- And, if you don’t have coconut milk, you can use 3/4 c water and 1 tbsp of desiccated coconut instead.
