Ingredients

Instructions

  • Put oat milk, vanilla, honey, and frozen banana into a blender. Secure lid.
    Place ingredients into the blender in the order listed.
  • Blend until smooth.
    Start the blender on LOW speed for 10 seconds. Increase speed to HIGH for a full minute.
  • Pour smoothie into a cup. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Always use sliced frozen banana. Whole frozen banana is too difficult for the blender to break down and it could damage the blades. 
  • Oat milk tastes great with banana, but you can also use other plant-based milks like unsweetened almond milk or soy milk.
  • If the smoothie is too thick, add a bit of oat milk, then blend for 10 seconds.
  • Instead of honey, you can use 1 tablespoon maple syrup or a Medjool date.
  • For a less sweet smoothie, omit the sweetener completely.
  • Store leftover smoothie in an airtight glass container for up to 1-2 days in the refrigerator. The ingredients might separate during this time, which is normal, so stir the smoothie before drinking it.
