Instructions
- In a high-speed blender, combine the frozen blueberries, vanilla protein powder, almond milk, rolled oats, Greek yogurt, honey, cinnamon, and ice cubes.
- Blend the mixture on high for about one minute, or until it achieves a smooth and creamy consistency. If the shake appears too thick, add some more almond milk and blend again until you reach the desired texture.
- Pour the smoothie into a large glass. If you wish, garnish with a few fresh blueberries and a sprinkle of cinnamon for an extra flavor punch. It's best enjoyed immediately, while it's cold and the flavors are at their peak.
Tips
- For a vegan option, replace the Greek yogurt with a dairy-free alternative, and use a plant-based protein powder.
- If fresh blueberries are in season, feel free to use them instead of frozen ones.
- For an added nutritional boost, consider adding a tablespoon of chia seeds or flaxseeds before blending.
