Steps
- 1
Add the rolled oats to the blender and pulse a few times to break them down slightly for smoother texture.
- 2
Add the fresh blueberries, Greek yogurt, milk, honey, and vanilla extract to the blender.
- 3
Add ice cubes if using, to chill the smoothie and add thickness.
- 4
Blend all ingredients on high speed for about 1-2 minutes until smooth and creamy.
- 5
Check the consistency and sweetness; add more milk if too thick or extra honey if desired, then blend again briefly.
- 6
Pour the smoothie into glasses and serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
Tips from the Chef
Use old-fashioned rolled oats rather than instant oats for better texture and nutrition.
If you prefer a vegan version, substitute Greek yogurt with coconut or almond yogurt and honey with maple syrup.
For extra protein, add a scoop of your favorite protein powder before blending.
Frozen blueberries can be used instead of fresh; reduce or omit ice cubes accordingly.
Soaking the oats for 10 minutes before blending can make the smoothie even smoother and easier to digest.
