Servings: 2 servings
Calories: 278kcal
Equipment
- 1 blender
Ingredients
- 1 cup frozen blueberries
- 1 banana
- 1 cup plain, non-dairy milk (I use soy milk)
- 1/2 cup plain or vanilla vegan yogurt
- 1/3 cup old fashioned oats
- 1 tablespoon almond butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a blender and puree until smooth. (If you don't have a high powered blender, blend the oats until finely ground first and then add the rest of the ingredients.)
Notes
- Use frozen fruit: For a thicker, frozen smoothie use frozen fruit. Adding ice to smoothies can thicken them but can also water them down so I prefer to use frozen fruit.
- Start on low speed: For best results, start by pureeing on a low speed and then gradually increase the blender speed.
- Add more liquid if needed: Depending on what type of blender you are using, you may need to add more liquid - especially if using both frozen blueberries and banana.
- Add sweetness: Feel free to add more sweetness to your smoothie by adding some medjool dates, maple syrup, or honey.
