Banana Yogurt Smoothie
Blend up a banana yogurt smoothie for breakfast in just 5 minutes. It’s packed with the macronutrients you need to fuel your morning and is great for drinking on the go.
Servings: 1 smoothie
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup Rolled Oats or gluten free rolled oats
- ½ cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
- 1 Banana fresh or frozen
- 1/2 tbsp Ground Flax Meal
- ½ cup Low-Fat Milk or milk of choice
- 1/2 tbsp Peanut Butter plus more for drizzling on top or peanut butter powder
- ½ tsp Cinnamon
- ½ tsp Vanilla Extract
Instructions
- Add the oats, yogurt, banana, flaxmeal, milk, peanut butter, cinnamon and vanilla extract to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and you have a creamy consistency. Add more milk or ice to adjust the consistency as you like.
- Drizzle the top with more peanut butter and a few sliced bananas then serve!
Notes
- Use a very ripe banana to ensure your smoothie has flavor. You can always add a zero-calorie sweetener if you want.
- Blend the liquid ingredients, then add the oats and flax meal to prevent the oats from sticking to the blender blades.
- Add more milk to thin the smoothie consistency or add more banana slices to thicken it to your desired consistency.
- Freeze your ripe bananas in slices to make smoothie-making quicker and easier.
