Suitable for Special Diet (or adaptable) Dairy-free, Egg-free, Gluten-free, Grain-free, Low-sugar, Nut-free, Sensory, Vegan, Vegetarian

Ingredients

250 ml Milk (ideally whole)
1.5 tbsp Cacao Powder (or cocoa powder)
1 tbsp Hemp Seeds (hulled)
2 tbsp Hazelnut Butter
0.5 tsp Vanilla Extract
2 tsp Maple Syrup
150 g Yoghurt (Greek – natural)

Instructions

Put all the ingredients into a blender and whizz until fully blended and smooth. This will take around a minute and give it a second blitz if you want the consistency super smooth.
Taste the milkshake and add a bit more maple syrup, if you have a sweet tooth.
Divide between glasses and serve straight away in a glass with or without a straw. If they love sprinkles, then pop some extra hulled hemp seeds on the top.

Notes

For a more grown-up twist, you can add a pinch of cinnamon or even espresso for a subtle flavour boost. You could also add a scoop of protein powder if you are trying to increase your protein intake.

Dairy-free or vegan – switch from cow’s milk to your plant-based milk of choice and almond or coconut yoghurt (these are not vital, so you can just add in more milk).
Nut-free – switch the hazelnut butter to tahini (sesame paste)

This chocolate milk can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days in a container. Please give it a good shake before serving.

You can also freeze the milkshake and turn the mixture into milky ice lollies.

Per serving. Nutrition content in food is never consistent, so take these estimates with a pinch of salt! Also, our recipes tend to use low-GI carbs and sugars, so these values are not directly comparable with shop-bought UPFs.
