This Healthy Orange Cream Smoothie tasted just like a creamsicle but is naturally sweetened with fruit and has added nutrients and protein!

This refreshing Healthy Orange Cream Smoothie tastes just like the summer treat you grew up on but without all those nasty artificial ingredients. It is the end of February here which where I live means cold, pretty dark, and snowy but the oranges are in their prime and really zest up my days with their bright and sunny deliciousness. Everyone in our house eats at least two a day while they are at their peak deliciousness. This smoothie is the perfect treat to brighten any gloomy winter day and it’s loaded with much needed vitamin-C.

What you need to make this smoothie:

  • Orange
  • Frozen banana
  • Flax seeds
  • Raw pumpkin seeds or hemp hearts
  • Coconut cream
  • Collagen powder or plant based vanilla protein powder (for vegan option)

Pumpkin seeds and flax seeds are highly nutritious and packed with powerful antioxidants that adds benefits without impacting the flavor or the orange. The collagen or vegan protein powder adds a creaminess and the added benefits of protein to keep you fuller longer.
