Basic Blueberry Smoothie

blueberries

bananas (I freeze my bananas in 1/2″ slices)

almond butter

In a blender, combine all of the ingredients.

Blend on low until the blender gains traction, then ramp up to the highest speed as soon as possible (or if your blender has a smoothie function, that will work great). Stop to scrape down the sides or add more milk if necessary.

Once the smoothie is completely smooth and creamy, taste it and blend in maple syrup if you&#8217;d like a sweeter smoothie. Divide the smoothie into 2 glasses. Serve immediately!

Avocado. Works great to attain that velvety smooth texture.  Of course, you WILL have to add a sweetener.

Yep, I tried it with peanut butter and the flavors went together really well. If you like pb more definitely use that.

Looks so refreshing and delicious! I love blueberry smoothie - so healthy too!

This smoothie is amazing and tastes like ice cream. I was surprised that my normal grocery store had frozen wild blue berries, I figured I would have to go to whole foods. I definitely will be drinking this all summer with you!

Made it this morning and it is delicious!

Mmmm! I make a smoothie like this and throw in spinach! That blueberry almond butter combo is heavenly!

I loved the photo so much that I made this smoothie for breakfast today. Such a beautiful color! Not sure if I'll add this to my regular repertoire, but it was fun to have a PBJ in a glass.

Wow looks great. Must try out. And blueberries .. so healthy. Thanks for the share. Such inspirational writing. well done.

My new favorite smoothie!  It tastes like something you might get through a Dairy Queen drive-through.  It's that good!

I love this smoothie! Thank you for the almond butter idea--I wouldn't have thought of that. I've mixed it up a little bit by adding chocolate almond butter and a half scoop of vanilla protein powder (I don't like the taste of those powders so just added a bit).

This was delicious! I added a handful of baby spinach to mine (as I do with nearly all my smoothies) for a nutritional boost. Thanks for another great recipe!

I went out and bought all the ingredients I'd need to make this smoothie, but had to use Cherry Berry Blend fruit (store was out of Blueberries).  The smoothie is HEAVENLY! It is one of the most delicious smoothies I have ever made!  Thank you for this recipe! Next step - get to the store and get the blueberries!

How did your smoothie come out so blue?? I love the color! I used organic, frozen blueberries and equal proportion almond mylk plus banana and mine is this pinky-purple color. Please share your secret. I love eating healthy foods that look amazing...all part of the fun!

It was absolutely delicious!!! I added thr oats and flax seed meal and the creamy texture made it even better. My new favorite smoothie!

Basic Blueberry Smoothie is Fabulous - my blueberries were not
frozen and it was excellent. I have shared this receipe

thank you

I made this recipe this morning and it was delicious and refreshing! I happen to love blueberries and this recipe made them the main star of my breakfast drink. I didn't need to add any sweetener since the blueberries and bananas added just the right amount of sweetness.

I tried this recipe today morning, its delish :) Substituted almond butter with peanut butter, worked great.

Not a fantastic cook and get put of by long complicated meals. Your meals are so lush all my favourite foods and so easy to prepare. I feel really proud and inspired by you. Thank you

Hey! KATHRYNE, I took strawberry smoothie last day. That was so cool! But can I take papaya instead of banana? I think that would more preferable for me!

It's hard to go wrong with a blueberry smoothie.  I made a similar smoothie using frozen blueberries and banana, peanut butter instead of almond, and a little almond flavoring, and some yogurt and milk instead of almond milk or water.  And molasses, as I had no maple syrup, and some packets of sweetener.  One doesn't need exactitude here to come up with something excellent.  That's part of why the high rating -- it's so flexible.
