Banana Pear Smoothie with Oat Milk

Oat milk is naturally a little sweet and very creamy, which makes it a perfect partner for banana and pear. A few almonds add body and a nutty note.

About this smoothie

Banana and pear are a soft, naturally sweet base that blends into a creamy texture without any sugar. Oat milk has a mild, slightly cereal-like sweetness and a creamy body, and it is free of dairy, soy and nuts (the almonds here aside). The almonds add protein, fibre and a gentle nutty depth. The result is a soft, easy-drinking smoothie that suits almost everyone, from a quick breakfast to an afternoon snack.

Bartender tips

  • Soak the nuts in water for a few hours or overnight, drain them, and the smoothie will be noticeably smoother.
  • A pinch of cinnamon or vanilla suits the mild flavour very well.

Variations

With dates
Blend in one pitted date for a caramel-like sweetness.
