Thick and delicious date shake made with frozen bananas and zucchini and naturally sweetened with dates. This easy date shake has tons of fiber from the bananas, zucchini, and dates and even packs in sneaky veggies! You’ll love this shake for a wonderful breakfast or afternoon pick-me-up.

I believe that smoothies should be considered a food group. That’s how utterly obsessed I am with them! I have one every single day, usually for breakfast, and sometimes twice a day when the weather is warm and my body is craving cold foods. The body wants what it wants!

This incredible date shake is naturally sweetened with dates, super think from frozen bananas and zucchini (trust me, you don’t taste them) and filled with rich, caramel flavors from the dates. It’s refreshing and decadent tasting all at the same time.

Enjoy this smoothie as a balanced, healthy breakfast or as an afternoon energy boost!

Ingredients in this date shake

This delicious date shake seriously tastes like dessert. It’s sweetened with bananas and dates, which are considered nature’s candy! It’s dairy-free and packed with plenty of healthy fats and fiber to keep you full and satisfied. Here’s what you’ll need to make it:

Medjool Dates: The star of the show. Dates are packed full of fiber and potassium. I recommend having a few every day to reep all the benefits!

Bananas: Frozen bananas are the queen of thick, creamy smoothies. Additionally, bananas are an excellent source of carbohydrates and soluble fiber. I like to keep a bag of frozen bananas in the freezer so I have them ready to go for smoothies.

Zucchini: Adding frozen zucchini helps to thicken the shake and adds extra fiber. Plus it adds a boost of nutrition you won’t even be able to taste!

Peanut Butter: a little peanut butter adds extra creaminess and flavor to the smoothie that you’ll love. You should really use any nut butter that you love.

Chia Seeds: Navitas Organics Chia Seeds are your ticket to maximum omega-3s! You can add these tiny protein- and fiber-packed seeds to oatmeal, smoothies, yogurt, and other recipes for a nutritious boost.

Superfood+ Sea Veggie Blend: Navitas Organics Superfood+ Sea Veggie Blend brings oceanic nutrition to your everyday routine! Containing three varieties of seaweed, this powerful powder is bursting with marine minerals and umami flavor. It’s a perfect addition to smoothies, sauces, soups & more.

Cacao Nibs: Navitas Organics Cacao Nibs are a superfood powerhouse. Straight-up cacao bean bits—high in antioxidants, fiber, and minerals—they’re perfect for smoothies, trail mix, baking, ice cream, or as an unsweetened cacao snack straight out of the bag!

My favorite nutritional boosters

This date shake is packed with vitamins, antioxidants, fiber, protein & healthy fats on its own, but here are some of my favorite ways to add even more nutrition.

Flaxseed meal: this is one of my favorite ingredients to add to smoothies for a little boost of fiber and minerals. It’s great for your skin too!

Hemp seeds: throw in some hemp seeds for another boost of healthy fats, omegas, and minerals.

Protein powder: Easily add more protein to a smoothie by adding a scoop of your favorite protein powder.

I hope you love this incredible date shake! If you make it be sure to leave a comment and a rating so I know how you liked it. Enjoy!
