Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

This is one of my favorite vegan breakfast smoothies. It's filled with ingredients that I usually already have on hand and is perfect for a quick plant-based breakfast at home or on the go.

This is also great for a make ahead smoothie recipe. Simply make the night before and store it in a tumbler in the fridge. I like to use a stainless-steel tumbler and pop it in the freezer for a few minutes before pouring in my smoothie. Then I place it in the fridge and it's still nice and frosty the next day.

Smoothie Ingredients

Frozen Blueberries: These can be expensive so look for a good sale and then buy a bunch and store them in the freezer.

Frozen Banana: Every few weeks I buy a ton of ripe bananas, I'm talking like 20 bananas. I slice them and put them on a baking sheet in my freezer until they are frozen solid. Then I transfer them to an airtight container and store them in the freezer for the next couple of weeks. By doing this, I have delicious frozen bananas ready to use for my smoothies.

Baby Spinach: I almost always prefer to use baby spinach as my spinach of choice. It has a lighter and sweeter flavor compared to regular spinach. This is a great article about some of the health benefits of spinach.

Plant-Based Yogurt: I've really been enjoying adding a scoop of vegan yogurt to my smoothies. I prefer to use vanilla for extra delicious flavor.

Oat Milk: I personally feel that oat milk is one of the creamier plant-based milk options. I love the extra creaminess in my smoothies.

Equipment

  • High speed blender

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup blueberries frozen
  • 1 banana frozen
  • ½ cup baby spinach
  • ½ cup oat milk
  • ¼ cup plant based yogurt vanilla
  • ½ cup ice

Instructions
 

  • Start by blending together the spinach and oat milk for about 30 seconds.
  • Add your remaining ingredients to the blender and blend until smooth and creamy.
  • Optional: top with your favorite fresh fruit, coconut flakes, or any additional toppings.

Notes

It's important to use frozen blueberries and bananas in this recipe. This will give your smoothie more of a frozen consistency. If you don't have time to freeze these ingredients before making the smoothie, add extra ice when blending.
Don't skip the step of blending your spinach and plant based milk before adding other ingredients. This gets rid of any clumps and makes your smoothie nice and even with every sip.
