Ingredients
- 1 cup (240 ml) milk I use unsweetened soy milk
- 1 ½ banana cut into slices and frozen
- 3 tabelspoons quick-cooking oats gluten-free as needed
- 1 teaspoons flax seeds optional
- 1 tablespoon almond butter
Spices
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon ground cardamom sub ground cloves
- ⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg
Instructions
- Add the milk, frozen banana slices, oats, peanut butter, flax seeds (if using) and spices to a high-speed blender.
- Blend on high or use the smoothie program of your blender. I blend it for 30 seconds to 1 minute to make sure the oats are as finely ground as possible.

Notes
- Leave out the ground ginger, nutmeg and cardamom for a plain cinnamon banana smoothie.
- For a spiced chocolate smoothie, add 2 heaped teaspoons of unsweetened cocoa powder.
- If you don't have frozen bananas on hand, use fresh ones and add 2-3 ice cubes. The smoothie won't be as thick and creamy, but the taste will be the same.
