This Peach Oatmeal Smoothie is thick, creamy, and lightly sweet, with the cozy flavor of oats blended into a bright peach smoothie. It is a great option when you want something quick and refreshing, but still filling enough to work as breakfast.
The peaches add a naturally sweet, juicy flavor, while the oats give the smoothie more body and make it feel a little more satisfying than a basic fruit smoothie. It is simple, easy to customize, and blends especially well in a high-powered blender like a Vitamix.
For the smoothest texture, blend the oats with the milk for a few seconds before adding the rest of the ingredients. This helps break the oats down more evenly, especially if you prefer a very smooth smoothie.
If you are using a Vitamix, add the liquid first, then the oats, softer ingredients, and frozen peaches last. Start on low speed and gradually increase to high until the smoothie is thick and creamy.
For a thicker smoothie, use frozen banana or add more ice. For a thinner smoothie, add a splash more milk.
For extra protein, add a scoop of vanilla protein powder or use more Greek yogurt.
For a peach cobbler flavor, add a pinch of nutmeg and a little extra cinnamon.
For a dairy-free version, use almond milk, oat milk, or coconut milk and skip the Greek yogurt.
For a smoothie bowl, reduce the milk to 1/2 cup and top with granola, sliced peaches, oats, and a drizzle of honey.
