Ingredients
Scale
1 cup frozen strawberries
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 scoop unflavored or vanilla keto protein powder (optional)
2 tablespoons erythritol or monk fruit sweetener (adjust to taste)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon lemon juice
3-4 ice cubes (optional, for extra thickness)
Instructions
Place the softened cream cheese, heavy cream, almond milk, protein powder (if using), sweetener, vanilla extract, and lemon juice into a high-speed blender.
Add the frozen strawberries and ice cubes.
Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. Stop and scrape down the sides as needed.
Taste the smoothie and add more sweetener if you prefer it sweeter.
Pour immediately into a glass and serve.
Notes
For a thicker smoothie, use slightly less almond milk or add 1/4 of an avocado for extra healthy fat and creaminess.
If you do not have frozen strawberries, use fresh strawberries and add 1/2 cup of ice.
Use a keto-friendly sweetener that dissolves well to avoid grittiness.
