How delish does this look? Simple but sweet, this smoothie will have you coming back for seconds.
Ingredients
- 2 ripe peaches, quartered, pits removed
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- 1/4 cup rolled oats (gluten free for G-free eaters)
- 1/2 frozen banana (peeled before freezing)
- 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
- OPTIONAL: 1 Tbsp agave, maple syrup or stevia for added sweetness (or honey for non-vegan)
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a blender and let set for 5-10 minutes so the oats and chia seeds can soak. Then blend until smooth.
- To thicken, add another quarter-half a frozen banana. To thin, add more almond milk or OJ.
- Taste and adjust flavor as needed. I added a touch of agave.
- Serve immediately.
Notes
Nutrition information is a rough estimate for 1 smoothie; half the recipe.
Substitute nectarines for peaches for a very similar taste.

Lovely! Just a quick couple of questions. Do you peel the peaches or allow your blender to finely process the skin? And are ground flax seeds OK instead of chia? I don’t have chia seeds!
