Banana and Oats Breakfast Smoothie
Oatmeal, a banana, peanut butter, milk, and ice cubes, are thrown into the blender and blended until smooth. Talk about easy 🙂
As simple as the ingredients are I just wanted to note that if you are using peanut butter I recommend a brand that is 100% peanuts (or make your own). For 2 reasons I recommend this, first for your health it is a good idea to avoid any sneaky sugars and/or preservatives. The second reason is the environment, most peanut butters on the market include palm oil. The production of palm oil is causing large scale deforestation pushing many animals to extinction like orangutans and tigers, to learn more check out Say No To Palm Oil. So for both of these reasons I always get Crazy Richards 100% Natural Creamy Peanut Butter
, it is so yummy!

TIPS & TRICKS:
• Old Fashioned Oats, Quick Oats, or Steel Cut Oats will all work well in this smoothie
• Banana Oatmeal Breakfast Smoothie calls for peanut butter but feel free to use whatever nut/seed butter of your choosing.
• Sometimes on days where I need a little extra energy I add extra peanut butter.
• Same goes for the milk as the peanut butter, I use regular cows milk but whatever you choose will work.
• This is a single serve recipe and is most easily made with a single serve blender, although any blender will work. I have a ninja blender that works amazing, I can use the easy single serve cup in the morning and then throw on the to-go cover that came with it and take it with me.

I absolutely love this shake I have one everyday I wouldn’t change a thing !!
I am so glad you love it Karren! 🙂
So you don’t cook the oats before putting them in the blender?
So you don’t cook the oats before putting them in the blender?
Nope, just put them in uncooked!
How do I print the recipe on a Android
Do you think it would be OK to make it the night before If it’s getting eaten first thing in the morning?
Hi Leah, I wouldn’t recommend it because chances are the smoothie would probably separate into layers and you’d have to re-blend it anyway. Although you could pre-measure out the Oats, Peanut Butter, and Banana and place it in a ziplock or container and just add the additional ingredients the next morning and then blend it together. Great question!
I dont see the amounts for each ingredient.
Hi Amanda, sorry about! There was a glitch with the recipe card. It should be back up and running now!
Thanks so much for commenting on the issues surrounding palm oil! We make our own peanut butter for the same reasons. Can’t wait to try your recipe!
How did you get the banana slices to stick to the inside of the glass so symmetrically? That looks cool!
Thanks! The banana actually sticks pretty well to the side of the glass, you just have to be careful when you pour over it!
I use this same recipe, except I use almond milk and I add two scoops of Ovaltine. So yummy with the Ovaltine!
Oh that does sound yummy!
It’s delicious, thank you for sharing. I used unsweetened vanilla almond milk in place of the milk. I convinced my 13 year old son with autism to taste it, he usually won’t eat anything but chicken nuggets and fries, and he said he would drink it If I make it with Nutella. That’s a win in my book. So thank you again!
Hi Tina! Thank you so much for taking time to leave a comment it means a lot to me, and it makes me so happy that your son would try it, I hope he will drink it again!!
