This Banana Peach Smoothie is rich and ice cream-like with notes of cinnamon. Rolled oats add creaminess and help keep you full!
This smoothie is the perfect mix of feels-ultra-nourishing and tastes-like-dessert. It is made with all good for you ingredients but is so creamy thanks to the banana peach combo.
Vanilla and cinnamon add depth of flavor and make it taste like peach pie!
Reasons to love this recipe!
- A simple 5 minute breakfast or snack.
- Adding oats to the smoothie increases the fiber content and helps make the smoothie more filling!
- This smoothie is vegan and can easily be made gluten free.
Ingredients and Substitutions:
- Banana - previously peeled and frozen.
- Frozen peaches - with or without the skin both work. Especially if you have a high speed blender, you won't notice the skin in the finished smoothie.
- Rolled oats - add creaminess and help make the smoothie more filling. You can also use quick oats or gluten free oats.
- Cinnamon - gives the smoothie a peach dessert-like feel, adding warmth and flavor.
- Vanilla extract - takes the smoothie to the next level adding gourmet sweetness!
- Milk - I especially like oat milk in this smoothie, but any milk you like works! Almond, soy, coconut, dairy, etc.
How to make the best banana peach smoothie:
Blend: Add all the ingredients to the blender and blend until smooth. Use the tamper or scrape down the sides as needed to ensure everything blends evenly
Serve: Top, if desired, and enjoy!
Storage:
Smoothies are best when consumed immediately, though it will keep in the fridge overnight.
For longer storage, consider making a freezer smoothie pack and tossing it in the freezer. Mornings just got even easier!
Optional Add-Ins:
I include a basic recipe below, but you can really jazz up your smoothie with some add-ins. You can add any of the following in at the end, once the smoothie is smooth.
- A handful of spinach or other greens – this is one you would want to add at the beginning before blending the smoothie.
- 2 tablespoons nut or seed butter – I love almond butter here!
- 1-2 scoops protein powder
- 2 teaspoons chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon honey
- Superfood powders – greens powder, mushroom powder, adaptogens, etc.
- ½ cup yogurt – regular, greek, or dairy free
Smoothie Topping Ideas!
Sometime I love this smoothie as is, and other times, I like to jazz it up with some toppings for texture and flavor. Here are ideas, but the sky’s the limit. In the photos, I added coconut yogurt, cinnamon, honey and some rolled oats.
- Granola – any flavor is great! I especially love vanilla or peanut butter.
- Fresh fruit: sliced banana, berries, kiwi, mango, etc.
- Frozen fruit: frozen berries are great!
- Freeze dried fruit: a new find for me, freeze dried fruit adds amazing crunch to smoothie bowls! Freeze dried berries, banana, pineapple, and mango, are favorites. I usually purchase them at Trader Joe’s or online.
- Nuts: almonds, walnuts, coconut, toasted coconut…
- Nut butters: peanut butter is almost always a must for me! Almond butter, cashew butter, sunflower butter, etc. are all great!
- Seeds: chia seeds or hemp seeds.
- Chocolate chips or cacao nibs.
- A drizzle of honey or agave.
