Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (240 ml) whole milk
- 1 cup (about 225 g) plain 2% Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup (40 g) old-fashioned rolled oats
- 2 tablespoons (32 g) natural peanut butter
- 1 medium ripe banana, peeled (about 118 g)
- 1 tablespoon (21 g) honey
- 1 tablespoon (12 g) chia seeds
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup ice, optional
Instructions
- Pour the whole milk into a high-speed blender, then add the Greek yogurt.
- Add the rolled oats, peanut butter, banana, honey, chia seeds, and optional ice.
- Blend on high for 45 to 60 seconds, until the oats are fully broken down and the smoothie is thick and uniform. Stop and scrape the sides if needed.
- If the smoothie is too thick to move, add whole milk 1 tablespoon at a time and blend again. Measure any extra milk if you are tracking calories closely.
- Pour into a large glass and serve immediately. For two smaller portions, divide evenly between two containers and refrigerate the second portion promptly.
Notes
- Nutrition is estimated for the full recipe using representative USDA-style values for whole milk, plain 2% Greek yogurt, rolled oats, peanut butter, banana, honey, and chia. Brands vary.
- The full smoothie is intentionally calorie-dense. Divide it into two equal servings if a roughly 886-calorie drink is more than you need at once.
- This recipe does not guarantee weight gain. Body-weight change depends on total energy intake and individual factors.
- For gluten-free preparation, use oats specifically labeled gluten free and verify all packaged ingredients for your needs.
- If weight loss is sudden, unexplained, or related to illness, seek individualized medical or dietetic guidance rather than relying only on calorie-dense recipes.
