Description

Start your day right with this Morning Coffee Smoothie – a delicious and energizing blend of coffee, bananas, oats, and a hint of sweetness. It’s the perfect healthy alternative to your regular cup of coffee!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup brewed coffee (cooled)
  • 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy like almond or oat milk)
  • 1 ripe banana (frozen for a thicker texture)
  • 1/4 cup rolled oats
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
  • Ice cubes (optional, for a thicker, colder smoothie)

Instructions

  1. Brew the Coffee:

    • Brew 1/2 cup of coffee and let it cool down to room temperature. You can brew it in advance and store it in the fridge to speed up the process.
  2. Blend the Ingredients:

    • In a blender, combine the cooled coffee, milk, frozen banana, rolled oats, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and cinnamon (if using). Add a few ice cubes if you prefer a colder, thicker texture.
  3. Blend Until Smooth:

    • Blend everything on high speed for about 30-45 seconds, or until smooth and creamy. Add extra milk or ice if necessary to reach your desired consistency.
  4. Serve:

    • Pour the smoothie into a glass and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a drizzle of extra honey.

Notes

  • For an extra protein boost, add a scoop of your favorite protein powder or Greek yogurt.
  • If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, adjust the amount of honey or syrup based on your taste preference.
  • You can substitute the banana with frozen cauliflower florets for a low-carb alternative while still maintaining a creamy texture.
  • If you’re using a high-powered blender, you can even blend the coffee while it’s still hot.
