SERVES 2
1 cup (150g) blueberries, frozen
1 medium bananas, ripe
4 tbsp. rolled oats
2 tbsp. almond butter
2 cups (480ml) almond milk, unsweetened
2 medjool dates
2 scoops (50g) vanilla protein powder
What you need to do:
- Prep Your Ingredients: I prefer to gather all the ingredients and have them measured and ready to go.
- Soften the Medjool Dates: If the medjool dates are not soft, soak them in warm water for about 10-15 minutes to soften. This will make them blend easily into the smoothie.
- Combine in the Blender: In a high-speed blender, add the frozen blueberries, ripe banana, rolled oats, almond butter, unsweetened almond milk, medjool dates (pitted), and vanilla protein powder.
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend on high until all the ingredients are smooth and creamy. If needed, scrape down the sides and blend again to ensure everything is well incorporated.
- Adjust Consistency (Optional): If you prefer a thinner consistency, you can add a little more almond milk and blend again until you reach your desired texture.
- Serve and Enjoy: Pour the smoothie into glasses, garnish with a few blueberries or a banana slice if you like, and enjoy the goodness of this energizing blueberry almond smoothie!
- Variation: Feel free to customize this smoothie by adding spinach or kale for an extra nutrient boost, or a tablespoon of chia seeds for added fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.
