Peaches and Cream Smoothie Ingredients

The honey-greek yogurt in this recipe makes the smoothie extra smooth. The oatmeal part of it isn’t really overpowering. It is all just a nice balance. Especially if you use a blender like a BlendTec or similar blender you will find you don’t get dry little chunks of oatmeal. It really just tastes like peaches and cream! If you aren’t a fan of almond milk, you can always use fat-free milk instead. I like the slight sweetness of the almond milk with honey but it really won’t make a big difference. It will just add a few more calories.

Almond milk – There are several variations of almond milk. We used almond milk with honey to add more flavor. Rolled oats – These are quick quaker oats that come in the tube shape form when bought at the grocery store. Perfect for oat smoothies, no baked cookies, or oatmeal itself. Honey greek yogurt – Yogurt has a rich flavor that blends well when mixed together. Continue with the natural sweetness from the honey. Frozen peaches – Sliced frozen peaches help keep the smoothie cold and frozen when blended together.

How to Make a Peaches and Cream Oatmeal Smoothie

It is a simple combination of all the ingredients in the blender at once. Blend or pulse until the peaches are blended well. This will make for a great snack, breakfast, or on-the-go drink throughout the day.
