There’s nothing better than an ice cold smoothie during the warm summer months! If you’re looking for a low-sugar smoothie, this Cinnamon Roll Smoothie is exactly for you!

This better-for-you smoothie comes straight from my 7-Day Summer Meal Plan, Grillin’ & Chillin’ (it’s available for a few weeks out of the year). 

I love using cinnamon in my smoothies because it helps regular blood sugar not to mention that it tastes so yummy and adds an extra depth of flavor to whatever you’re adding it to!

Cinnamon Roll Smoothie Ingredients

Like many of my smoothie recipes, this one is simple and contains a small list of ingredients. Nothing complicated here!

Here’s what you need in order to make this cinnamon smoothie:

• unsweetened almond milk (or any other non-dairy milk)
• plain Greek yogurt
• vanilla protein powder
• ground cinnamon
• cashews
• chia seeds 
• Ice

If you’re not a fan of certain ingredients, it’s simple to swap out what’s listed above for something you like.

Cinnamon Smoothie for the 17 Day Diet

If you’re eating low carb on the 17 Day Diet, you can certainly have this smoothie starting on cycle 3 when non-dairy milk and nuts and seeds are approved.

Changes for Cycle 1

If you want to try this smoothie starting on cycle 1, that is possible with a few changes!

Here is what you’ll need to do:

• Use 1/2 cup ice cold water instead of dairy free milk
• Increase the plain yogurt to 1 cup
• Skip the cashews and chia seed (although I think chia should be allowed in all cycles)

If you’re not sure which foods are allowed when, make sure you check out my 17 Day Diet Cycle 1 Food List for all the info!

You can also check out my book on Amazon called Fast Track Your Weight Loss With the 17 Day Diet which has all the food lists (and a 7 day meal plan, too!).

Can I have this Cinnamon Smoothie on the Kickstart Diet?

You can definitely enjoy this cinnamon smoothie while on the 17 Day Kickstart Diet. You can have this starting on the 10-Day Stabilize Phase when dairy and nuts are approved, similar to the 17 Day Diet.

Changes to Smoothie For Earlier Phases

If you want to enjoy this smoothie a bit earlier on the Kickstart Diet, here’s what you’ll need to change in order to make it compliant:

• Use flax milk or coconut milk
• Skip the yogurt or use a coconut or soy-based variety to keep it non-dairy
• Skip the cashews and add 1-2 tablespoons of your favorite seed butter instead

If you’re not sure which foods are allowed during each phase, make sure you take a look at my 17 Day Kickstart Diet Food List.

Keto Cinnamon Roll Smoothie

If you’re on the Keto Diet, this smoothie can be eaten as is. Make sure you use full fat ingredients such as coconut milk.

Depending on your macros, you may need to adjust the ingredients a bit to make sure you get what you need for your specific goals.

You may also want to add a bit of fiber to the smoothie to decrease the net carbs a tad from the yogurt.
