This peach smoothie is one of my favorite quick breakfasts when I want something creamy, naturally sweet, and filling. I love how the frozen peaches and banana blend into a smooth, satisfying drink, while the rolled oats make it hearty enough to keep me full all morning. It comes together in minutes and works perfectly for busy mornings or an on-the-go meal.
Why You’ll Love This Recipe
I like this recipe because it’s fast, nourishing, and made with simple ingredients I usually already have at home. The oats make it more substantial than a typical fruit smoothie, and the maple syrup adds just enough sweetness without overpowering the fresh peach flavor. I also appreciate that it’s vegan, gluten-free, and refined sugar-free, so it fits easily into many lifestyles.
Ingredients
(Tip: You’ll find the full list of Ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
1 cup frozen peaches
1 banana
1 cup almond milk
½ cup old fashioned rolled oats
1 tablespoon maple syrup
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
I start by adding all the ingredients to a blender. I blend everything on high for about 2 to 3 minutes, making sure the oats are fully broken down and the smoothie is completely smooth. Once blended, I pour it into a glass and enjoy it right away, or I store it in the refrigerator if I need it later.
Servings And Timing
This recipe makes 1 generous serving.
Prep time is about 5 minutes, and blending takes another 2 to 3 minutes, so the total time is roughly 7 minutes from start to finish.
Variations
When I want to switch things up, I sometimes add a spoonful of almond butter for extra creaminess and protein. I also like tossing in a handful of spinach for a nutrient boost without changing the flavor much. If I want a colder, thicker smoothie, I add a few ice cubes or extra frozen peaches.
Storage/Reheating
I usually drink this smoothie right after blending, but it stores well in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one day. If it separates a bit, I just give it a good shake or a quick stir before drinking. I don’t recommend reheating it, since it’s best enjoyed cold.
FAQs
Can I use fresh peaches instead of frozen ones?
I can use fresh peaches, but I usually add a few ice cubes to keep the smoothie thick and cold.
What can I substitute for almond milk?
I often use oat milk, soy milk, or even coconut milk depending on what I have on hand.
Do I have to use rolled oats?
I prefer rolled oats because they blend smoothly, but quick oats also work well in this recipe.
Is this smoothie sweet enough without maple syrup?
For me, the banana and peaches provide natural sweetness, but I like adding maple syrup for a little extra flavor. I sometimes skip it if my fruit is very ripe.
Can I make this smoothie ahead of time?
I make it the night before when needed and store it in the fridge, then shake it well before drinking.
Conclusion
This peach smoothie is a simple, wholesome recipe I come back to again and again. I love how filling it is thanks to the oats, while still tasting light and refreshing. Whether I’m rushing out the door or enjoying a slow morning, this smoothie always feels like a great way to start the day.
