Description
Making this smoothie is so simple, you could probably do it half-asleep (and let’s be honest, some of us do). But to make it foolproof and totally fail-free, here’s your quick guide.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ripe banana (fresh or frozen – frozen = ice cream vibes)
- 1 small apple (chopped, skin on or off — your call)
- 1/4 cup rolled oats (uncooked)
- 3/4 cup milk of choice (almond, oat, cow’s — go wild)
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon (optional, but delightful)
- 1 tsp honey or maple syrup (totally optional – banana might be sweet enough!)
- Handful of ice cubes (for that frosty finish)
🎯 Optional add-ins: 1 tbsp Greek yogurt, 1 tbsp nut butter, 1 scoop protein powder, 1 tsp flax or chia seeds.
Instructions
- Prep Your Ingredients Peel that banana, chop the apple (no need to be fancy), and toss everything into your blender.
- Blend Start on low, then ramp it up to high speed until smooth and creamy. About 30–45 seconds should do the trick.
- Taste Test Need it sweeter? Add a splash of honey. Too thick? A bit more milk. Not cold enough? Toss in more ice.
- Pour & Sip Grab your cutest glass, pour it in, and maybe even sprinkle a little cinnamon on top for the ‘Gram. You fancy.
Notes
- Too thick? Add a splash of milk or water. Go slow — you can’t un-thin a smoothie.
- Too runny? Add more oats or a handful of frozen banana chunks.
- Too bland? Check your fruit ripeness — underripe fruit = meh smoothie. Add cinnamon, nut butter, or vanilla extract to fix the flavor.
