7 Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal Smoothie

Aside from maybe chocolate, few foods taste better with freshly-roasted, salty peanut butter than a perfectly ripe banana. And aside from maybe pancakes, the best breakfast consists of smoothies. My Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal Smoothie combines the best of both worlds and is morphed into a well-rounded breakfast thanks to yogurt, milk, and oats.

Ingredients

Banana: Naturally sweetens the smoothie and adds a creamy texture.
Milk: Use whatever milk you have on hand, any and all will work.
Greek yogurt: Greek yogurt is higher in protein than typical yogurt, and adds to the creamy texture of the smooothie.
Oats: I use old-fashioned oats, and they make the smoothie more filling while being a great source of fiber, calcium, and iron.
Peanut butter: A huge source of protein, while also being creamy, delicious, and nutty.
Cinnamon: Sweet and woody in flavor, cinnamon is a great way to get many antioxidants.

How to Make a Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal Smoothie

Start your Peanut Butter Banana Oatmeal Smoothie by adding your banana to your blender.
