There are mornings for me when only a smoothie will do. Don’t get me wrong I’m a BIG breakfast fan, my normal brekkie of choice is porridge. Oats all the way are just amazing… wheat free, low glycaemic index, high on the satiation score and so versatile that you can throw all sorts of topping on them. Hence I always add them into my breakfast smoothies. This makes for a filling, healthy and thicker smoothy that has that staying power.
Peanut butter and banana is a combination from my childhood, peanut butter and banana on toast or in a sandwich is pure comfort food, plus its a great protein-fruit combination snack.
So combining all of that, here’s my latest smoothie combo. Try it out and let me know what you think.


- 1 banana
- 100ml low fat natural yoghurt
- 2 tbsp porridge oats
- 50ml of skimmed milk
- 1 tbsp peanut butter
- Place all the ingredients in a smoothie maker or use a hand held blender and whizz up.
- Perfect for mornings on the run!
