Instructions

1

Add Liquid First

Pour the almond milk into the blender first. This protects the blades and helps everything blend smoothly from the start.

2

Add Soft Ingredients

Add the Greek yogurt, peanut butter, honey, and rolled oats to the blender on top of the liquid.

3

Add Frozen Ingredients

Add the frozen banana and ice cubes on top of everything. Adding frozen items last helps the blender work more efficiently.

4

Add Protein Powder

Sprinkle the protein powder on top of the other ingredients. Do not add it directly to the liquid first as it can clump.

5

Blend and Serve

Blend on high for 45 to 60 seconds until completely smooth and creamy. Pour into a tall glass and consume immediately for the best texture and flavor.

Substitutions

almond milkoat milk for a naturally sweeter and creamier base
frozen bananafrozen mango for a tropical flavor twist
peanut buttercashew butter for a milder and slightly sweeter taste

Common mistakes

Adding protein powder before the liquid causes it to clump and blend unevenly
Using a fresh banana instead of a frozen one results in a thin and watery smoothie
Over-blending heats the smoothie and ruins its cold and creamy texture
