Banana, Blueberry And Peach Breakfast Smoothie

If you have a small blender, first process all ingredients without the ice. Add ice after the fruits and milk are blended, then process again until the ice is crushed and blended with everything else.

Enjoy your yummy smoothie!

Serving Suggestions

• Serve the smoothie in a tall glass with a fun straw for an inviting breakfast treat.
• Pair it with a slice of whole-grain toasted sandwich or a handful of nuts for an even more filling meal.
• Pour the smoothie into a bowl and top it with granola, fresh blueberries, or chia seeds for a smoothie bowl variation.
• Serve it as a snack on a hot day to cool down and refresh yourself.
• Add a garnish of fresh mint leaves for a touch of elegance.

Tips for Success

• Use Ripe Fruits: Make sure the banana and peach are ripe for maximum sweetness and flavor. A ripe banana will also make the smoothie creamier.
• Freeze Your Blueberries: Frozen blueberries are perfect for smoothies as they keep it cold and thick without needing as much ice.
• Adjust the Consistency: If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more milk to achieve your desired consistency. If it’s too thin, add a few more ice cubes or extra frozen blueberries.
• Blend in Steps for Small Blenders: If your blender has a smaller capacity, blend the fruits and milk first. Once smooth, add the ice cubes and blend again to avoid overloading the blender.
• Clean Your Blender Right Away: To make cleanup easier, rinse or wash your blender immediately after use before the fruit residue dries.
• Experiment with Add-Ins: Add a handful of spinach for extra nutrients or a spoonful of nut butter for added protein and richness.

Variations and Substitutions

• Make It Dairy-Free: Replace regular milk with almond milk, soy milk, or oat milk for a dairy-free option that’s just as creamy and delicious.
• Boost the Protein: Add a scoop of vanilla or unflavored protein powder to turn this into a high-protein smoothie perfect for post-workout recovery.
• Add Some Greens: Blend in a handful of spinach or kale to sneak in some greens without altering the taste much. It’s a great way to pack in more nutrients!
• Change the Fruit Combo: Swap the peach for mango or pineapple for a tropical twist, or replace the blueberries with strawberries or raspberries for a slightly different flavor.
• Sweeten It Naturally: If you like your smoothie a little sweeter, add a teaspoon of honey or a Medjool date.
• Add a Crunchy Topping: Pour the smoothie into a bowl and top it with granola, chopped nuts, or seeds for added texture.
• Make It a Dessert: Add a small scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for a treat-like version of this smoothie.

Storage and Reheating

• Refrigerating: If you have leftover smoothie, transfer it to an airtight container or jar and store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Shake well before drinking as separation may occur.
• Freezing: Pour the smoothie into an ice cube tray and freeze. When ready to enjoy, blend the smoothie cubes with a splash of milk to refresh it.
• Make-Ahead Option: Prep the fruits by slicing the banana and peach and placing them in a freezer-safe bag along with the frozen blueberries. When ready to make the smoothie, simply add the prepped fruits to the blender with milk and ice.
• Reblending: If the smoothie thickens too much in the fridge, give it a quick blend with additional milk to restore the original consistency.
