Tips for the Best Cinnamon Oat Smoothie

  • Use rolled oats. Quick-cooking oats will make your smoothie too thick and pasty.
  • Add a little bit of sweetness. A tablespoon of honey or maple syrup will help to balance out the tartness of the yogurt and fruit.
  • Don't over-blend. You want your smoothie to be thick and creamy, but not too thick. Blend until the oats are mostly broken down but still have a little bit of texture.
  • Add some toppings. A sprinkle of cinnamon, nutmeg, or pumpkin pie spice will add a nice touch of flavor. You can also top your smoothie with fresh berries, nuts, or seeds.
