This blueberry peach yogurt smoothie is a cool, creamy breakfast blend with sweet summer flavor in every sip. Blueberries bring a juicy berry taste, peach adds sunshine-sweet freshness, Greek yogurt makes it thick and creamy, and a small scoop of oats helps it feel more like a morning meal. It is simple, colorful, and easy to blend when you want something refreshing but still filling enough for a busy breakfast.
Ingredients
- 1 cup frozen blueberries
- 1 cup sliced peach, fresh or frozen
- 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 medium banana
- 1/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1/2 cup milk, dairy or non-dairy
- 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup, optional
- 1/2 cup ice, optional if using fresh fruit
How To Make It
Add the milk and Greek yogurt to your blender first. This helps the blades move smoothly and keeps the oats from sticking near the bottom.
Add the blueberries, peach slices, banana, rolled oats, and honey or maple syrup if you want a sweeter smoothie. If your fruit is fresh instead of frozen, add the ice for a colder, thicker texture.
Blend on high for 30 to 60 seconds, or until the smoothie looks creamy and the oats are fully blended. If the mixture is too thick, splash in a little more milk and blend again. If it is too thin, add a few extra frozen blueberries or a couple more peach slices.
Taste before serving. Add a tiny drizzle of honey for extra sweetness, or a squeeze of lemon juice if you want the fruit flavors to taste brighter. Pour into one large glass or two small breakfast glasses and serve right away while cold and frosty.
Tips
Use frozen blueberries for the prettiest purple color and the thickest smoothie texture. Frozen peach slices also work beautifully and make this smoothie easy to enjoy even when fresh peaches are not in season.
For a higher-protein blend, use a thick plain Greek yogurt and choose milk with a flavor you enjoy. Vanilla Greek yogurt can be used too, but it will make the smoothie sweeter.
If you prefer an extra-smooth texture, blend the oats with the milk for about 10 seconds before adding the fruit. This gives the oats a head start and creates a creamier finish.
To make it more like a smoothie bowl, reduce the milk to 1/3 cup and top with granola, sliced peach, and a few blueberries.
Blend it cold, pour it pretty, and enjoy a bright summer breakfast!
