Key ingredients for breakfast smoothie
- Oats
- Milk
- Balckberries
- Yogurt
- Ice
- Honey
Variations
- You can add a handful of other berries like strawberry or blueberry to slightly change up the flavor.
- Add 1 tablespoon of unflavored protein powder to make this more filling.
- You can add 1 ripe banana in this recipe and that will add sweetness as well as more creaminess.
- I use milk in this recipe but I have seen other recipes, which call for coconut water. I tried it but found the consistency to be too thin and didn't like it at all.
- If you want to make a vegan version, make sure to use vegan yogurt and vegan milk (soy milk, almond milk, coconut milk).
- Try other sweeteners such as maple syrup or agave syrup or brown sugar.
- If you are not fond of the chunky oat texture, you can reduce the quantity to your liking.
- Add extracts to change up the flavor profile.
- For additional blackberry flavor, use blackberry flavored yogurt, if you can find it. I feel like it's a flavor that's not always available at grocery stores.

Sounds delicious. What kind of oats do you use?

Thanks! I use quick cooking oats in smoothies. It just mixes into the drink faster than the original rolled oats.

This was great! I guesstimated the ice to be 6 cubes and it was thin. Next time I’ll use 4 cubes.
