Method
- If using blueberries, add the cinnamon and vanilla extract to the blender. If using raspberries, add the almond extract instead.
- Place the rolled oats, sliced almonds or almond butter, banana, frozen berries, water, fresh spinach, and ice cubes into a high-speed blender.
- Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth and well pureed, scraping down the sides if needed.
- Pour into a glass and serve immediately.
💡 Tips
- For a thicker smoothie, use less water or add more frozen fruit.
- If you don't have a high-speed blender, soak the oats in the water for 5 minutes before blending.
- You can use any combination of frozen berries you like.
