    Chestnut Chocolate Smoothie Recipe – Super simple, refreshing, healthy, and delicious smoothie made with seasonal chestnuts, cocoa powder, cinnamon, and milk!

    What is chestnut chocolate smoothie?

    Chestnut chocolate smoothie is a super simple and delicious beverage made with roasted or cooked chestnuts, cocoa powder and milk. If you are looking for a smoothie recipe without yogurt and banana, this recipe is for you!

    What are chestnuts?

    Chestnuts are hard-skinned nuts that are very popular in Europe, USA, Asia, and middle eastern counties. Chestnuts are also called Marroni, Marrons, Kestane, Castañas, Kastanien, Châtaignes, and Castagne in Switzerland, Spain, Germany, Turkey, Italy, and other European countries. Roasted marroni or chestnuts are a very popular European street food in the winter. We buy the warm roasted chestnuts from the street vendors here in Europe. The raw chestnuts can be roasted or cooked to use in many dishes such as hummus, truffles, chocolate spread, cardamom chestnut milk, cakes, cookies, and soups. Read more about them here

    Ingredients:

    Cooked or Roasted Chestnuts

    Milk

    Unsweetened Cocoa Powder

    Cinnamon Powder

    Honey

    How to make it vegan?

    Replace milk with the same amount of any plant-based milk such as oats milk or almond milk and swap honey with maple syrup or sugar to make it vegan.

    Should I use roasted or cooked chestnuts?

    Either would work well. I have used cooked chestnuts in this recipe.

    Can I use frozen chestnuts?

    Absolutely!

    Serving suggestions:

    Enjoyed best over any family gathering leading up to Christmas or even up to Easter.

    Step by step instructions:
