How to make a blueberry smoothie without yogurt
Combine. Add all ingredients to a high-powered blender and blend until smooth and creamy.
Blend. Divide your silky blueberry smoothie into 2 glasses. Top it with more blueberries, spinach leaves, or chia seeds. You can add crispy homemade granola to make it even more filling and satisfying. Enjoy!
Hint. If you like your smoothies sweeter I recommend you to taste and add a teaspoon of maple syrup, agave syrup, or a date to achieve the desired sweetness.
Substitutions and variations
If you need some alternative ingredients for this blueberry weight loss smoothie, give some of these a try.
Oat milk - substitute oat milk with any non-dairy milk you prefer. You can use almond milk, cashew milk, or soy milk, as well.
Banana - you can easily make this blueberry smoothie without banana by replacing it with Greek vegan yogurt, avocado, mango, or cauliflower. To compensate for the sweetness of ripe banana try adding 1-2 dates or a tablespoon of pure maple syrup to your smoothie.
Flaxseeds + Chia seeds - you can use hemp seeds, pumpkin seeds, or rolled oats instead. These are a fantastic source of plant-based protein.
Spinach - if you don't have fresh spinach at hand then kale or a mix of greens is a good substitute.
Add nut butter - peanut butter, cashew butter, or almond butter will add a subtle nuttiness and make this blueberry spinach drink more filling.
Equipment
All you need to make this berry spinach smoothie recipe is a high-powered blender.
Storage
For maximum nutrition and taste make sure to enjoy this smoothie as soon as you make it. You can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Just give it a good shake before consuming.
Top tips
- Use ripe bananas. Since this blueberry smoothie is relying on banana for sweetness my suggestion is to use a very ripe banana. If it's not sweet enough to your taste you can add pure maple syrup, agave nectar, or dates.
- You can use fresh banana if you don't have frozen at hand.
- For the best cold and creamy consistency, make sure to use at least one frozen fruit.
- A good blender is very important to create a thick, luscious texture.
Absolutely! Morning is a perfect time of the day to drink an energy-boosting smoothie. That's when your body easily absorbs all the micronutrients from all God-given foods like fruits, veggies, and seeds, and quickly transforms them into energy.
I believe there is no better breakfast or brunch than a big glass of cold nutrient-dense smoothie.
It fuels you with essential vitamins, minerals, and fiber and keeps you filled until the next meal. Truly, there is no wrong time to have a smoothie. You can sip it as a post-workout recovery drink, afternoon snack, or as kid-friendly dessert. It's so versatile!
This rich and creamy blend of juicy, pleasantly sweet blueberries paired together with mild, earthy spinach and mixed with sweet tropical banana flavor will surely satisfy your sweet tooth. A perfectly balanced morning treat!
