What Is A Snickerdoodle

So.

I have seen quite a few snickerdoodle recipes in the recent months, and none of them have cream of tartar. That is what differentiates a snickerdoodle from… a cinnamon cookie.

Right?

All the snickerdoodles I grew up with, anyway.

…and how I learned to make them in school. Cream of tartar is a leavening agent like baking soda or powder, but it also brings a tangy Snickerdoodle flavor. A snickerdoodle needs that distinctive tang.

see our Sugared Snickerdoodle Bread recipe! 

Vegan Snickerdoodle Smoothie

I created a Quinoa Snickerdoodle for the We Love Quinoa cookbook, which you can all see in January. In the meantime, I will share with you the quick, easy, and tangy sweet Vegan Snickerdoodle Smoothie I have been enjoying since late summer.

Cream of tartar is for the sole purpose of flavor here – I know, it’s weird, but… it’s a Snickerdoodle Smoothie. Without the cream of tartar, this is a cinnamon smoothie.

How To Make A Snickerdoodle Smoothie

As is, this Snickerdoodle Smoothie recipe has 14 grams protein and 9 grams fiber.

This smoothie uses one of my go to dairy free milks – cashew. Feel free to use your favorite – for a creamy smoothie I recommend a rich milk like cashew or hemp.

The nut butter brings richness and protein. I prefer a sunflower seed or cashew butter, for a neutral flavor. Peanut and even almond are great, but will change the flavor. 

 

Smoothie Variations

  • want more protein? add a scoop of your favorite powder. vanilla would be good.
  • less sugar? reduce or omit the dates. if your banana is ripe, it may be sweet enough.
  • don’t like bananas? I get it. dates will add enough sweetness.

    I’m glad you called out this cream of tartar-less Snickerdoodle business. It’s just not right! I love that you’ve got the Snickerdoodle vibe perfectly in this smoothie. And I’m already in line for a quinoa Snickerdoodle!

    Gorgeous and sounds incredible! And THANK YOU for including the cream of tartar! I have a snickerdoodle cookie bites on my blog and I used cream of tartar as well, even though they are no-bake, because hello, the flavor! Whenever I see a snickerdoodle recipe without the cream of tartar, I want to scream, haha! That is what sets it apart from just a cinnamon sugar cookie!!

      a little goes a long way, so I get not having it on hand… I was able to find it in BULK, so I just filled up a small baggie – perhaps you can find some in bulk too?
