Description
A creamy, lightly spiced Banana Oat Cinnamon Smoothie that blends ripe banana, rolled oats, milk, warm cinnamon, and honey into a deliciously smooth drink.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ripe banana
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup milk (or almond milk)
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon honey (or maple syrup)
- Ice cubes (optional)
Instructions
- Peel the banana and measure the oats, milk, cinnamon, and honey. For a colder drink, use a frozen banana or have ice cubes ready. Soak the oats in the milk for 5 minutes for a smoother texture.
- Place the banana, rolled oats, milk, ground cinnamon, and honey in the blender. Blend on low, then high until smooth.
- No cooking is needed; blending raw or soaked oats will create a creamy texture. Adjust sweetness or cinnamon to taste.
- If desired, add a few ice cubes and blend again for a colder smoothie. Pour into a glass, optionally sprinkle with cinnamon, and enjoy immediately.
Notes
For a silkier texture, soak the oats in milk for 5–10 minutes beforehand. Adjust the thickness by modifying the liquid or fruit ratios. Can be made vegan by substituting honey with maple syrup.
