Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 ripe banana (peeled and broken in half)
- 12 medium strawberries (rinsed and hulled)
- 1 cup almond milk (I use unsweetened)
- ½ cup rolled oats (Use gluten-free if needed; see notes)
- ¼ cup lightly salted cocktail peanuts
- ⅓ teaspoon vanilla extract
- pitted date or Stevia (only if needed for sweetness)
- ½ cup ice (If using a frozen banana or frozen strawberries, just use 5 cubes.)
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a blender and mix until smooth. Blend until you cannot detect the texture of the oats.
Notes
You can use a frozen banana if the strawberries aren't frozen. Or, use frozen berries with a fresh banana. Using two kinds of frozen fruit will make the smoothie too thick and difficult to blend.
If ½ cup of oats is too much fiber for you, you can use ⅓ cup. Don't use steel-cut oats here, because they're too coarse and won't blend in well.
