Peach Raspberry Weight Loss Smoothie With Flax

This peach raspberry weight loss smoothie with flax is fruity, creamy, and easy to blend when you want a lighter breakfast or snack that still feels satisfying. Sweet peach, tart raspberries, banana, Greek yogurt, almond butter, and ground flaxseed come together in a pretty pink smoothie that tastes bright and fresh without needing lots of added sugar.

Ingredients

Makes 1 large smoothie.

  • 1 cup frozen peach slices
  • 1/2 cup frozen raspberries
  • 1/2 medium banana, frozen or fresh
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk, plus more as needed
  • 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
  • 1 tablespoon almond butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup ice, optional for a thicker blend

How To Make It

  1. Add the almond milk to the blender first. This helps the blades move smoothly and makes blending easier.
  2. Add the Greek yogurt, peach slices, raspberries, banana, ground flaxseed, almond butter, vanilla, and ice if using.
  3. Blend on high for 30 to 45 seconds, or until the smoothie is creamy and the fruit is fully blended.
  4. Check the texture. If it is too thick, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of almond milk at a time and blend again.
  5. Pour into a glass and enjoy right away while it is cold, thick, and refreshing.

Tips

Use frozen peaches and frozen raspberries for the best smoothie texture. They make the drink frosty and creamy without needing too much ice, which can water down the flavor.

Choose plain Greek yogurt to keep the smoothie balanced and tangy. If your fruit is not very sweet, add a small drizzle of honey or use a very ripe banana for natural sweetness.

Ground flaxseed blends better than whole flaxseed and gives the smoothie a subtle nutty flavor. Stir the flaxseed into the blender with the liquid ingredients so it does not clump.

If you want a thinner smoothie, add more almond milk. If you want a spoonable smoothie bowl, reduce the almond milk to 1/2 cup and top with sliced peaches, raspberries, or a sprinkle of granola.

For quick prep, freeze the peach, raspberries, and banana together in a small freezer bag. In the morning, just add the frozen fruit blend to the blender with the yogurt, almond milk, flaxseed, and almond butter.

Cheers to a bright, creamy smoothie that makes healthy sipping feel easy!
