MAKE A BLUEBERRY BANANA SMOOTHIE!
I’m a big fan of blueberries in smoothies, but they don’t really add much “oomph” as far as being filling on their own. So, this blueberry banana smoothie is the one I make when I want to really taste the blueberries, but get in additional ingredients that will keep me full.
Between the frozen banana, Greek yogurt, and almond milk, it does just that. I’ll even toss some almond butter in my smoothie if I’m extra hungry or need it to last through a long, busy morning.
Happy Cooking!

Blueberry Banana Smoothie Ingredients
- Blueberries: For the best flavor, choose large, plump blueberries. You can also use frozen blueberries.
- Bananas: I like to use frozen bananas for creaminess.
- Almond milk: I use unsweetened almond milk for this smoothie. Here’s how to make your own almond milk! You can also use oat milk, soy milk, or dairy milk.
- Greek yogurt: I recommend plain, unsweetened Greek yogurt for creaminess.
- Almond butter: It thickens the smoothie, adds a little nutty flavor, and adds protein. Here’s how to make DIY almond butter. Any nut butter, like peanut butter or cashew butter, works well here.

Instructions
- Place all the ingredients in a high-speed blender and blend until smooth and creamy, about 60–120 seconds.

Nutrition
Nutrition information provided is an estimate. It will vary based on cooking method and specific ingredients used.
Recipe Variations
- Amp up the omegas: Add a teaspoon or two of hemp seeds, flaxseeds, or chia seeds for a dose of healthy omega fats.
- Add protein powder: Pour in a scoop of protein powder for an extra boost.
- Add vanilla: Add a little splash of pure vanilla extract and blend for a blueberry smoothie that tastes like a milkshake!
- Add a handful of greens: I recommend baby spinach or baby kale for the mildest flavor. The color will fade, but it’ll still taste great.
Recipe Tips
- Use a high-speed blender. It makes the creamiest, smoothest drinks.
- Load your blender in order. For an even blend, add liquids first, then powders and sweeteners, then greens, then fresh fruit, then frozen fruit, then ice on top (if you’re using it).
- Adjust the thickness. For a thinner smoothie, add more milk. For a thicker smoothie, add more bananas or Greek yogurt. You can also blend in ice for a thicker, cooler smoothie.
