This raspberry peach smoothie with Greek yogurt is creamy, fruity, and tangy with a sunny breakfast flavor that feels fresh but still satisfying. It blends sweet peaches, tart raspberries, banana, and flax seeds into a pretty pink smoothie that fits right into a high protein smoothie routine thanks to the thick scoop of Greek yogurt. It is easy enough for busy mornings and bright enough for an afternoon pick-me-up.
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 cup frozen raspberries
- 1 cup sliced frozen peaches
- 1/2 medium banana
- 1 tablespoon ground flax seeds
- 1/2 cup cold milk of choice
- 1 to 2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup, optional
- 1/2 cup ice, optional
Frozen raspberries and frozen peaches give this smoothie the best thick, frosty texture. If you are using fresh fruit, add the ice to help the smoothie blend up cold and creamy.
How To Make It
1. Add the milk to the blender first, followed by the Greek yogurt. This helps the blades move smoothly and keeps the mixture from getting stuck. 2. Add the banana, frozen peaches, frozen raspberries, and ground flax seeds. 3. Blend on high until the smoothie is creamy and fully combined, about 30 to 60 seconds. 4. Taste and adjust. Add honey or maple syrup if your raspberries are extra tart, or add a splash more milk if you want a thinner sip. 5. Pour into a tall glass and enjoy right away while it is cold, bright, and silky.
This recipe makes one large smoothie or two smaller snack-size servings. For the prettiest color, serve it immediately after blending.
Tips
For a thicker smoothie, use a frozen banana and keep the milk to 1/2 cup. For a thinner smoothie, add milk one tablespoon at a time until it reaches your favorite texture.
For a stronger peach flavor, use very ripe frozen peach slices and reduce the raspberries slightly. For more berry tang, add an extra 1/4 cup of raspberries.
If your blender is not high-powered, let the frozen fruit sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before blending. You can also pulse a few times before blending on high.
To make it a smoothie bowl, use only 1/3 cup milk, then top with granola, sliced peaches, raspberries, or a sprinkle of extra flax seeds.
Grab a straw and enjoy this bright, creamy sip!
