Creamy and nutty with soft papaya sweetness and a gentle honey finish.
Hazelnuts give smoothies body and a toasty, nutty flavour, and they are a source of unsaturated fats and vitamin E. Ripe papaya has a soft, melon like sweetness and a velvety texture that blends very smoothly. Natural yogurt brings a little tang, milk and honey round it off.
Because of the nuts this smoothie is quite filling and works well as a breakfast or a substantial snack. Toast the hazelnuts briefly in a dry pan for an even deeper flavour.
No, because of milk, yogurt and honey. Plant drink, plant yogurt and maple syrup make it vegan.
Ripe papaya is mild and sweet; the hazelnuts dominate the flavour.
Yes, almonds or cashews work well.
