Instructions
Add ingredients to blender
Place the shredded carrot, frozen banana, oat milk, cinnamon, ground ginger, maple syrup, and rolled oats into a high-speed blender. For a colder smoothie add a small handful of ice cubes at this stage.
Blend until smooth
Blend on high speed for 60 to 90 seconds until the smoothie is completely smooth and creamy with no carrot chunks remaining. Stop and scrape down the sides halfway through if needed.
Taste and adjust
Taste the smoothie and add more maple syrup for sweetness, more cinnamon for warmth, or a splash more oat milk if you prefer a thinner consistency. Blend briefly to incorporate any additions.
Serve immediately
Pour the smoothie into two glasses and optionally top with a pinch of cinnamon, a few chopped walnuts, or shredded coconut for a beautiful carrot cake presentation.
