This refreshing and nutritious blueberry smoothie combines fresh or frozen blueberries, banana, yogurt, almond milk, and peanut butter for a creamy, satisfying drink that’s perfect for breakfast or a healthy snack. Easy to customize and quick to prepare, it offers a delicious way to enjoy antioxidant-rich blueberries and protein-packed ingredients in just 5 minutes.

Ingredients

Fruits

  • 10.5 oz blueberries (2 cups; fresh or frozen)
  • 1 banana (fresh or frozen)

Dairy & Alternatives

  • 5.2 oz plain yogurt or Greek yogurt (1/2 cup)
  • 1 cup almond milk or milk of choice (dairy or dairy-free)

Other

  • 1/4 cup peanut butter or nut/seed butter of choice
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prep your ingredients. Gather and measure all the ingredients according to your preferred quantities, adjusting the blueberry amount if you want a stronger berry flavor.
  2. Add milk and banana to blender. Pour the almond milk into your blender first, then peel and chop the banana before adding it in.
  3. Add yogurt, nut butter, and vanilla. Spoon in the yogurt and peanut butter, followed by the optional vanilla extract for added flavor depth.
  4. Add blueberries and blend. Pour in the blueberries last, then blend everything until you achieve your desired consistency—smooth or slightly thick.
  5. Serve and garnish. Pour the smoothie into a tall glass. Enjoy with a spoon if thick or a straw if thinner. Optionally, top with nut butter, coconut chips, almonds, or fresh blueberries for extra texture and taste.
  6. Make ahead and store. Blend the smoothie as directed, then pour into airtight containers or freezer bags. Freeze for up to three months. Defrost overnight in the fridge or blend frozen with a splash of liquid before serving to maintain texture.

Notes

  • You can customize the smoothie by swapping almond milk for any milk of choice, including dairy or other plant-based milks.
  • Frozen fruits can make the smoothie thicker and colder without adding ice.
  • The peanut butter can be replaced with any nut or seed butter to suit your taste or dietary needs.
  • Adding vanilla extract is optional but enhances the sweetness and depth of flavor.
  • For a thinner smoothie, add more milk; for a thicker texture, reduce liquid or increase frozen fruit.
  • Freezing prepared smoothies is a convenient way to meal prep for busy mornings or snacks.
