Banana and Oat Milk Smoothie

Oat milk has a natural, slightly cereal sweetness that suits banana very well. Half a pear adds juiciness and keeps the smoothie from feeling heavy.

About this smoothie

Oat milk is made from oats and water and is one of the creamiest plant milks, with a mild, naturally sweet flavour. It is a good dairy free choice for fruit smoothies because it does not taste nutty or beany. Banana brings sweetness and body, pear a fresh, juicy note.

The smoothie is vegan and gentle in flavour, good for breakfast, as a snack for children or after exercise.

Bartender tips

  • Choose an oat milk without added sugar; most are already naturally sweet.
  • A pinch of cinnamon or cardamom adds warmth.

Variations
