The queen of all berries

Blackberries are in my opinion a truly underestimated berry. Although they are just shortly in season they reduce inflammation, boost brain function and are super beneficial for the skin. Aren’t those some pretty amazing characteristics? I guess blackberries have the name “superfood” written all over them.

For this recipe we’ll use them for one of my favorite go-to smoothies when I am super busy or on a run. That means this smoothie only takes up five minutes of your time, cleaning the blender included. Which probably makes it the quickest breakfast I’ve ever made.

Ingredients:

Makes one jar

For the smoothie:

80g buckwheat
125g fresh blackberries
50g frozen berries of your choice (I’ve used a mix of blueberries and red currants)
200g plant-based milk (I’ve used almond milk)
1 tbsp cashewbutter
1/2 tsp vanilla

For decoration:

2 tbsp plain coconut yoghurt
fresh cherries (or berries of your choice)
fresh blackberries
quinoa pops – optional

Directions:

Place all the ingredients for the smoothie into your blender. If you have a high speed blender you can mix it right away. If not, let the berries defrost for a few minutes. This will make it easier for your blender to blend it up. Easy as that!
Arrange in a jar of your choice and top with the coconut yogurt, cherries and berries. Enjoy ??
