Reasons To LOVE Date Milkshake
- gluten-free
- sugar-free
- possible vegan (use oat milk)
- energy booster and fulfilling
Ingredients You’ll Need
- Dates: Use sweet, super soft dates such as Medjool, Deglet Noor, or any other similar variety. Get rid of the seeds inside the dates or use pitted ones.
- Banana: A ripe, sweet banana is perfect for this milkshake recipe.
- Milk: I use low-fat milk for making the milkshake. For a vegan milkshake, you can use almond/soy/cashew milk.
- Figs: The dried figs give a good taste and add nutrition to the milkshake. Feel free to add almonds, walnuts, pecan nuts, or any other dry fruits and berries.
- Cinnamon Powder: It gives an earthy, warm, ad slightly spicy taste to the date milkshake. You can substitute it with cardamom powder, pumpkin spice powder, or instant coffee powder.

My Tried and True Tips
- Before using dates for making milkshake or bread, soak them to soften. I prefer soaking them in milk overnight and keep in the fridge. Use the soaked dates for making a super creamy and smooth milkshake.
- Make sure to use sweet-tasting and ripe bananas for making the milkshake. If you have a frozen banana sitting in the refrigerator then nothing like it.
- I prefer using chilled milk for making the date milkshake. It makes it more creamy.
- Banana and cinnamon are a match made in heaven. A pinch of cinnamon takes even simple banana muffins to the next level. Also, the taste of cinnamon helps to balance the sweetness.
