Prepare Ingredients.
Gather all ingredients: 1 scoop whey protein powder, 1 medium banana, 1 cup fresh spinach, 1/4 cup rolled oats, and 1 cup unsweetened almond milk. Peel the banana and measure out the oats and spinach.
Tip: Use ripe bananas for natural sweetness and creaminess. -
Add Ingredients to Blender.
Place the banana, fresh spinach, rolled oats, and whey protein powder into the blender. Pour in the unsweetened almond milk last to help the blending process.
Tip: Add the liquid last to help the blades move smoothly. -
Blend Until Smooth.
Secure the blender lid and blend on high speed for about 30 to 60 seconds, or until the mixture is completely smooth with no lumps. Stop and scrape down the sides if needed to ensure even blending.
Tip: If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more almond milk and blend again. -
Serve and Enjoy.
Pour the smoothie into a glass and enjoy immediately for the best flavor and texture. Optionally, add ice cubes before blending for a chilled smoothie.
Tip: Drink right away to enjoy the fresh nutrients and flavor.
Pro tips
- Use rolled oats instead of instant oats for better texture and nutrition.
- Freeze the banana beforehand to make the smoothie colder and creamier without adding ice.
