    Banana-Nut Oatmeal-Raisin Smoothie with Coconut

    You'll love this Banana Oatmeal Smoothie! It tastes like the batter from oatmeal-raisin cookies but is vegan and guilt free!

    Banana Nut Oatmeal Raisin Smoothie with Coconut in a glass mugSay hello to my latest breakfast obsession — this banana-nut oatmeal-raisin smoothie with coconut. It's good for you but tastes like the batter from oatmeal cookies, or maybe banana bread, or just the best cake ever.

    Hi, my name is Andrea, and I'm addicted to dessert batter.

    If you're not a fan of raisins, don't worry. They're pulverized in the blender, leaving only their sweetness and fruity flavor without the texture.

    Same with the coconut.

    glass mug filled with Banana Nut Oatmeal Raisin Smoothie with Coconut, raisins, walnut halves, shaved coconutHere's what I throw in my Vitamix to make this heavenly vegan concoction: a banana, light almond milk (40 calories!), walnuts, oats, raisins, unsweetened coconut, cinnamon, vanilla and ice. I provide exact measurements in the recipe that follows, but I usually just eyeball everything, using a handful, some pinches, a few dashes and a splash.

    It's like the old-school Italian way of cooking everything, but for some reason, I'm most comfortable employing it with smoothies.

    This one's definitely breakfast in a glass. Bottom's up!

        I started doing it to help me stay full longer. It's also a nice way to include some whole grains in my diet. I hope it works for you too!

      I have made something similar to this, but without the coconut. I would love to try your version!

      Yes, please!! This sounds like a perfect breakfast to me...maybe even lunch, right now! I just realized I have everything to make this, except the almond milk, but I'll try it with skim. Awesome idea!

        I did have this for lunch yesterday, as a matter of fact...It should work well with the skim milk too. Enjoy!

        Haha, Ami, I just found myself with a huge container of raisins and wanted to figure out how to use them more often. I didn't expect to like them so much in my smoothie but am so glad I tried it. 🙂
