Ingredients You’ll Need
- Blueberries – you can use fresh or frozen!
- Old Fashioned Oats: I use old fashioned oats for this recipe. I found old fashioned oats work better than quick oats, as they hold up really well while being blended.
- Banana
- Walnuts
- Plant-Based Vanilla Protein Powder
- Plant-Milk – you can use a store-bought milk or try our 2-ingredient unsweetened oat milk recipe or our dairy-free honey almond milk.
- Orange – the sweetness and acidity adds a nice touch to this smoothie!
Substitutions and Variations
- For the plant-based milk, you can use any variety you prefer: oat milk, soy milk, almond milk, or coconut milk!
- Substitute 1/4 of orange juice for the orange if desired.
- You can use any protein powder you prefer, but I like the flavor of vanilla in this recipe which pairs nicely with the berries and oats.
Blender for Making Smoothies
You’ll want to use a good, sturdy blender for this recipe, as the oats do need to be blended well.
I recommend using a good-quality high speed blender for this recipe. I have a fantastic Vitamix blender, which I have been using for years, and it gets daily use in our home.
Choose a blender that has a lot of power, and can pulverize even the toughest of ingredients. My blender can chop ice, dates, frozen fruits, make soups, and even blend nuts into homemade nut butter. Using a good high-speed blender will make perfectly creamy smoothies and sauces every time!
How To Make This Recipe
Be sure to visit the recipe card below for full ingredient amounts and recipe instructions!
Step 1: Add all ingredients to a high speed blender.
Step 2: Blend on low, and increase speed to high. Blend on high for 2-3 minutes until all fruit/oats are blended and the smoothie is a creamy consistency.
Step 3: Pour into your favorite glass, and enjoy!
Dietary Modifications
- This recipe is vegan and plant-based – if you are adding a protein powder, make sure it keeps with any dietary modifications you require. I like a vegan and gluten free vanilla protein for this smoothie, if I’m adding a powder!
- To make this recipe gluten free, ensure you are using certified gluten free oats and a gluten free protein powder.
FAQs and Pro Tips
If I have any smoothie left over, I store it in an airtight container (I like to use mason jars with lids) and refrigerate for up to 1 day.
A good quality high-speed blender is preferred – be sure it can breakdown thicker ingredients like oats, ice, or large chunks of frozen fruit.
I like using a plain oat milk for this smoothie as it has a thick and creamy texture, which is similar to yogurt or traditional dairy. But any unsweetened plant-based milk will work: soy, almond, rice milk, or coconut milk.
Pro Tips
- This smoothie is creamy and thick! For a thinner smoothie, add 1/4 cup additional plant-based milk, or more until you reach your desired consistency.
- Use fresh or frozen blueberries – which ever you can find at the time of the year you make this. I like using fresh berries in the summer, when they are seasonal and ripe, and frozen blueberries the rest of the year.

Blueberries are my absolute favorite. This uses them very well
This recipe was good, but not thick enough for me
