I love how healthy this is – I can’t even stomach the real deal – definitely giving this recipe a try!
I know! Totally guilt free and DELICIOUS!
Wow, an eggnog that doesn’t have oodles of fat in it. Now, that’s an eggnog I can stand behind. I honestly have always loved the holidays for the unique traditional foods that they bring, but eggnog is definitely one of those that I love but drink sparingly. This is a recipe that I don’t have to drink sparingly, as in a juice glass. With such healthy ingredients in it, I can actually drink a real glass’ worth of nog! Love that! I also like Tess’ idea of having more “kick” to it, so I definitely would use the cinnamon more lavishly. This is now a recipe I can add to my Christmas family collection of traditions. Thanks for sharing it, blender girl!
Hey beautiful Tara!
I am glad you liked this healthy egg nog!
I LOVE this recipe!
I am EGGstatic (Ho ho- See what happened there?) that someone has finally created a fantastic, healthy, vegan alternative to Eggnog at last!!!!!! This is a wee holiday miracle with no guilt! Dates are the perfect sweetener and the banana gives this super treat a terrific creamy texture!!!!!! It’s not too rich but still so full of flavour!!! I’m going to choose this eggNOT (Wink, wink) over hot chocolate any day of the week!!! Happy Holidays!!!
Wow! This looks yummy and healthy. Are there any particular type of eggs that I should use? Giving thanks!
LOL Tom!
On the 1st day of Christmas The Blender Girl gave to me…An awesome Egg Nog recipe! (If you sing it…It does actually rhyme. 🙂
LOL! I think this eggnog is making everyone a little nutty! Glad you liked it. Thanks for the song!
So, so, so good!!! Love the guilt free feeling too. This is a definite keeper. Thanks Tess.
Isn’t this delicious?!
I am glad you liked it.
Happy Holidays xx
why do you soak the date?
Hey Zenzi,
You just soak the dates to soften them and make them easier to work with. It also brings out the sweetness in really dry dates.
But you don’t need to soak them to enjoy this recipe. I have been in a hurry tons of times and not soaked the dates and the recipe is delicious!
I’ve had several raw vegan egg nogs, & just made yours. I have to say, it’s not my favorite. Perhaps too banana flavored & not sweet enough & not strong enough in its spices. It’s yummy, don’t get me wrong, & super healthy especially compared to the regular kind, but i think this recipe needs tweaking.
Thanks Kaye, I really appreciate your feedback. This is a recipe from the Incredible Smoothies website. I loved this recipe. But, it’s always great to get different opinions. I’d love to taste some of your other recipes.
If it tastes too much like banana, try using bananas that are just barely ripe. The more ripe it is, the sweeter it will be, but also has more banana flavor. Hope that helps.
Thanks Joy.
i don’t want to be the scrooge here, but although the recipe is great, it is technically not raw vegan. lol it is vegan, just not raw.
Sorry Kelly, what isn’t raw about this recipe? Technically, if you don’t use alcohol-free vanilla extract, that would not be raw. But, are you referring to something else? This is a raw recipe.
Just tried it! It really is delicious! It really does taste just like the traditional Egg Nog! Thank you!
Yay! So happy you enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing your experience.
I’d rather have more fat and way less sugar……the carbs would kill me.
Fair enough. This does contain a lot of carbs.
Bananas everywhere 🙁
Yes, bananas help make it creamy and sweet. This recipe does contain a lot of carbs and sugar, but it’s so wonderful for a holiday treat.
Made this tonight…good recipe but I must say a little too light on the spice as they were barely detectable. I added 1/2 tsp of each instead of 1/4 and it was much better.
Thanks for sharing your experience Beth. Yes, add spice to taste. I like it with a bit more, too.
