Banana Pomegranate Smoothie with Oat Milk
Creamy and mild, with sweet banana and pear and a fresh, tart pomegranate note.
Pomegranate seeds are tart, juicy and slightly astringent, a nice contrast to the soft sweetness of banana and pear. Baby bananas are small and particularly sweet, so one is enough here. Oat drink adds a creamy texture and a mild cereal note while keeping the smoothie dairy free.
The pear contributes juice and fibre, especially with the peel on. Together the ingredients make a filling, gently sweet smoothie for breakfast. Pomegranates are in season in autumn and winter, which is when this drink is at its best.
Yes, all ingredients are plant based.
Yes. Half a ripe regular banana replaces one baby banana.
Yes, replace the seeds with 50 ml of pure pomegranate juice and reduce the oat drink slightly.
