Blueberry Almond Oatmeal Smoothies
You guys. These blueberry almond oatmeal smoothies might just be my new favorite smoothie. Crazy, since they don’t include chocolate OR peanut butter. They’re just that good.
I’m a big fan of the blueberry almond combo, as witnessed by my blueberry crumb muffins, blueberry almond muffins, blueberry coffee cake, AND grain free blueberry muffins. I just can’t get enough of that flavor combo!
In this smoothie, I used Dream Boosted Almond beverage but it’s also available in coconut (both can be found at Whole Foods and will soon be in Sprouts Farmers Market Stores).
As I mentioned before, blueberry and almond is like my love language. I give these smoothies an extra boost of almond flavor with some almond extract. I use a ¼ tsp in the recipe but you can use less or even omit it if you’re not in love with almond extract like I am.
Just don’t use more! If you use too much almond extract, they’ll end up with a bitter taste and you’ll essentially ruin your perfectly good smoothie. And you don’t want that to happen. So be sure to measure it correctly and don’t just pour it in.
Another thing I love about this smoothie, aside from the taste, is that color! G-O- R-G- E-O- U-S.
I shared a picture of it on Instagram a while back and I seriously couldn’t stop staring at that pretty purple hue. If I had an office, I would have that as an accent color everywhere and just stare at it all day long. Who needs to work when you have pretty purple smoothies?
Also, I should mention the one con to these smoothies. You’ll eventually get to the bottom of the glass and be super sad when your smoothie is gone. Enjoy!

This is the third recipe of yours that I tried. I love that they are so easy and quick. Your smoothie recipes especially are tasty and healthy. Perfect for a hot NY dinner when I don’t feel like turning on the stove.
Thanks Lizzie!
This sounds really good. It’s my first time on your blog so I feel silly asking, but I don’t see an actual recipe for the smoothie, though its name implies the ingredients and I saw what you wrote about the almond milk. Would you please direct me to the full recipe? Thanks.

This looks so good, about to make these tmw for breakfast, question could I use Kalifa Vanilla Almond Milk? I tend to love it more than others.. I’m pumped so hungry already at 3:am!
Thanks, Chillin.
While I haven’t tried it, I’m sure it would probably work fine 🙂
