Creamy oatmeal apple smoothie

Fiber rich, gluten free and very filling breakfast smoothie. Enjoy it warm or cold.
Prep 15 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes
Servings 2

Ingredients 

  • 1/2 cup old-fashioned rolled oats I use gluten free oats
  • 1 1/4 cups soy milk or almond milk
  • 2 Medjool dates pitted and roughly chopped
  • 2 tablespoons hazelnut butter or almond butter
  • 1 medium apple cored and roughly chopped
  • 1 small banana sliced
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon more to taste
  • 2 teaspoons honey more to taste

Instructions

  • Place oats in your blender. Blend on high speed until they resemble coarse flour.
  • For a warm smoothie, warm up milk in the microwave or on the stove until it's very warm, but not boiling. If using cold, just add milk to blended oats.
  • Add the rest of the ingredients and blend on high speed until completely pureed and smooth. Taste the smoothie and add more milk or cinnamon if desired.
  • Serve the smoothie with some apple chips on the side for the ultimate breakfast.

Notes

You can use cow's milk in place of soy (or almond) milk if you wish. If using yogurt, add some water to thin it out if needed.
Maple syrup is great instead of honey.
To make this without a banana, add more dates or honey if needed for sweetness and adjust the amount of milk used, to make a thicker smoothie.
