Carrot Cake Smoothie Bowl (Gluten Free, Paleo, *AIP)

As you guys know, I love dessert and carrot cake is definitely one of my favorites (except for the frosting, which I hate). So… to make a healthy version of the original, I came up with this carrot cake smoothie bowl, a great way to add veggies into your breakfast (or even lunch if, like me, you like to prepare something quick and nutritious instead of cooking).

This carrot cake smoothie bowl is lusciously creamy and it’s complete with lots of healthy toppings that, by forcing you to chew, stimulate the production of salivary enzymes that are responsible of activating digestion and stomach acid so that your digestive tract is fully capable of assimilating all the good nutrients you are taking in.

And the nutrients in this carrot cake smoothie bowl are plenty!! Healthy fats from the nut butters, coconut milk and avocado, proteins from the collagen, fibers from the avocado and zucchini, low fructose carbohydrates from the carrots… together with all the crunchies on top, that help trigger digestion and prevent bloating.

What I love about this recipe is that it actually REALLY tastes like carrot cake!!! I think the secret for that is in the spices and the delicious and nutritious add-ons, like maca and mesquite powder that give a hint of sweetness and make it taste super decadent without adding any refined sugar to it!

And if you want a styling tip to make your carrot cake smoothie bowl beautiful, make sure to serve in a real coconut bowl!! I love these bowls so much… and using my CODE: littlebitesofbeauty10, you can save 10% on checkout if you want to order some!

Like all of my other recipes, even this carrot cake smoothie bowl is dairy and gluten free, paleo and, with a few modifications which I listed below, it can be enjoyed even if you are on the elimination phase of the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP).
