There are days when I crave smoothies like nobody’s business.

The creamy texture, sweet taste, and the fact that it’s filled with healthy ingredients tricks my mind into thinking I’m drinking something indulgent.

That’s the beauty of smoothies, right? A drink full of healthy ingredients to fuel you throughout your day. And sometimes it’s needed more than others.

And today just happens to be a day where I’m craving ALL the smoothies. And more specifically, this Banana Bread Smoothie.

Banana-anything holds a special place in my heart. From this banana bread granola to this banana caramel french toast bake, I love it all. It also helps that my kitchen is practically stocked with bananas every day of the week.

The hubster eats a banana just about every day, yet he only likes them when there are no brown spots on the peel. I try to tell him that even if it gets a little brown, the banana inside is still ripe and sweet, but he just doesn’t like that. And that actually works out to my advantage, because then I can use all of the spotty brown ones for baking.

So when we had a few bananas sitting on the counter last week, I decided to incorporate them into this delicious Banana Bread Smoothie. This drink is thick, creamy, and full of nutritious ingredients. It takes just minutes to whip up and tastes like the classic bread, in drink form!

To make this smoothie extra delicious, I used Almond Breeze Almondmilk Original Unsweetened, along with a combination of Greek yogurt, oats and spices. The Almond Breeze Almondmilk gives this drink just the right amount of flavor, without overpowering it. This milk is also full of nutrients, which is a winner in my book.

If you love smoothies and banana bread, then this healthy drink was made for you. It combines the sweet taste of bananas and has a thick, creamy texture from the oats and Greek yogurt. It’s also full of protein, which means this smoothie will keep you going all day long.

So grab that blender and whip up this easy and oh-so delicious Banana Bread Smoothie! One sip and you’ll be hooked on the sweet taste and creamy texture!

    Sounds perfect, Gayle! I'm on a smoothie bender at the moment -- ONE A DAY -- and I can't wait to add this into my rotation. That almond milk is my liquid of choice in all of my smoothies, so I certainly have what I need in my kitchen. Perhaps it will be breakfast tomorrow (once I have a chance to freeze some bananas)! :)

    I've been craving smoothies lately, so this is perfect! I'm the same way as your husband. I really only like bananas that are still green or just ripe. As soon as they get brown spots I won't eat them! I'll use them for baking, but I won't just eat it. I think it's a texture thing for me haha. Can't wait to try this banana bread smoothie!

    I love smoothies, but haven't made one in a week! Thanks for this awesome recipe Gayle! My husband absolutely hates over-ripe bananas and the ones with brown spots, he says we need to throw them away, that's why I try to freeze them :)

    I love that smoothies are healthy but taste like a treat! I eat bananas every day, too, and love popping overripe ones in the freezer for smoothie emergencies. This looks delicious, Gayle, and I love all the oats and Greek yogurt in here making this extra satisfying!

    Oh yum! A slight...mold...incident happened to our smoothie-maker, so we have to get a new one. When we do, though, I am totally making this! Speaking of bananas, we had like eight overripe ones that needed to be used up. So I made a batch of the breakfast cookies and banana bread a couple days ago. They were so good!

    We always have bananas too, Gayle... but we aren't as picky about the brown spots as your hubs. Honestly, I am jealous, because you get to actually have bananas to bake with! That rarely happens over here, because even when I am purposely letting them get slightly brown, Boy will somehow steal them. Anyways, you truly are the smoothie queen!! I love all of your smoothie recipes, but this one is totally calling my name. Banana bread in healthy smoothie form almost sounds too good to be true! Can't wait to try this one tomorrow morning! Pinned! Cheers, my dear!

    I'm always running out of ripe spotted bananas, because I use them so often in smoothies and for baking! I love that you made the banana flavor the focus of this smoothie, Gayle. And with the oats, it looks like the perfect way to fuel up in the morning!

    this sounds yum. one thing i learned the hard way. don't freeze bananas in the skin. you would think the frozen skin would peel right off, but you'd be wrong. ask me how i know. *snort*
