Description
This refreshing smoothie blends sweet peaches and juicy blueberries with almond milk, creamy yogurt, chia seeds, and a hint of vanilla for a naturally sweet, nutrient-packed breakfast or snack. Thickened with chia seeds and sweetened with fruit and dates, it’s satisfying, creamy and full of fiber and antioxidants.
Ingredients
- 2 cups unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- 1/2 cup whole-milk plain Greek-style yogurt
- 1/3 cup chopped pitted Medjool dates
- 1/4 cup fresh orange juice
- 1 3/4 cups frozen peaches
- 3/4 cup frozen blueberries
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom or ground ginger
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Add the almond milk, Greek-style yogurt, Medjool dates, orange juice, frozen peaches and frozen blueberries to a blender.
- Add the chia seeds, vanilla extract, ground cardamom (or ginger) and salt.
- Blend on high speed until completely smooth, about 1 minute.
- Pour into 2 glasses and serve immediately.
Notes
- For a dairy-free or vegan version, substitute a plant-based yogurt alternative.
- If using fresh fruit instead of frozen, add a few ice cubes to thicken the smoothie.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours and stir before serving.
- For a thicker smoothie, add more frozen fruit; for a thinner consistency, add more almond milk or orange juice.
- Optional add-ins include a handful of spinach, a scoop of protein powder, or tropical fruits like mango or pineapple.
