Healthy Oat Smoothies ~ Blueberry Muffin & Peach Cobbler Flavors
Ground oats, yogurt, and frozen fruit lend these wholesome, filling Healthy Oat Smoothies a thick, creamy texture, while pure vanilla extract and a touch of cinnamon make them taste just like blueberry muffins and peach cobbler!
I’ve been seeing smoothie recipes incorporating raw oatmeal for a couple of years now, but I have to admit that I never felt compelled to experiment with adding oats to my typical smoothie base of frozen fruit and yogurt. And then came along my daughter who, at the sweet and compliant age of two, has decided that she doesn’t want to eat anything besides cheese popcorn, cheese sandwiches, cheese quesadillas, peanut butter crackers, and the occasional apple slice. We’re talking breakfast, lunch, and dinner here, people. The wide variety of fruits and veggies that she happily ingested as a baby? Well, apparently her tastebuds are taking a hiatus from those flavors. Hopefully her interest in venturing outside of the beige-to-orange color palette will return at some point, but in the meantime, I’m having to get creative at making sure the stubborn child is not subsisting on carbs and cheese alone.
