1. Avocado Gula Melaka Smoothie

Avocados are extremely nutritious and are rich in healthy fats, fiber and contain about 20 different vitamins and minerals! Most importantly, they make for good smoothies because of their creamy texture and nutty flavour. To sweeten the recipe, it is best to use gula melaka, or coconut palm sugar, which pairs perfectly with avocado and adds a rich caramel undertone.

Ingredients:
Serves 2

    - 4 pitted avocados - 50g melted gula melaka - 300ml milk of your choice - 50g crushed walnuts - 150g ice cubes (optional)

 

Directions:
1. To make gula melaka syrup, chop up the gula melaka into smaller pieces, add to a pan with a little bit of water and melt over low heat until you get a maple syrup-like consistency.
2. Add avocados, ice (optional), milk, and gula melaka syrup into the blender.
3. Blend until smooth.
4. Pour into a cup and top with crushed walnuts. Enjoy!
