Peach Pie Smoothie
This Peach Pie Smoothie tastes like sipping on a slice of summer pie! It’s creamy and naturally sweet thanks to ripe peaches and bananas! Perfect for breakfast or a quick snack.
Peaches of all sorts are piled up in the produce section, my blender has made a permanent home on the countertop, and it officially feels like summer. Ahhh summer. Most of the year you can find me tucking into a smoothie bowl for breakfast, but by August, a simple refreshing smoothie is happening on the daily.
If you’ve hung out in the smoothie bowl section of the blog, you’ll find I’m a huge fan of pie-in-a-bowl recipes like Apple Pie Smoothie Bowl, Healthy Pumpkin Pie Smoothie Bowl, and Strawberry Rhubarb Pie Smoothie Bowl. But it’s summer and it’s time for pie-in-a-glass.
Naturally Sweetened
Getting that dessert for breakfast deliciousness in smoothie form is literally as easy as plopping all the ingredients into a blender. We’re talking 5 minutes to drinking a slice of pie, only much healthier.
This peach and banana smoothie is naturally sweetened with ripe fruit. When choosing peaches, give them a squeeze. If they’re soft and can be dented but not mushy, they’re ripe but not over-ripe and perfect for smoothies. When blending bananas, use ripe bananas that are bright yellow with a few black spots, letting you know the starches have turned into simple sugars.
Fresh Fruit or Frozen Fruit?
This vegan peach smoothie uses fresh fruit and you can drink it through a straw. For a thicker, slushy-style smoothie, use frozen fruit.
The recipe is clean and simple, but you can toss in some extra fiber and protein. Here’s a few of my go-to add-ins for thickening smoothies while getting a hit of added nutrients. Psst…the cashew/oat combo really takes peach pie smoothie to the next level!
¼ cup of raw cashews (soaked until soft)
2 tablespoons of rolled oats
2 tablespoons of hemp seeds
1 tablespoon of chia seeds
What’s in this peach pie smoothie?
Peaches: Use fresh ripe flavorful peaches. Bland peaches will make for a bland-tasting smoothie. For a thicker smoothie use frozen peaches.
Bananas: To make the smoothie naturally sweet, use ripe bananas. Freeze them ahead of time for extra thickness.
Almond Milk: My favorite plant-based milk is homemade almond milk. You can use almond milk, oat milk, or full-fat coconut milk for extra richness.
Almond Butter: for healthy fats and richness. It complements the almond milk nicely. Cashew butter would also be very tasty.
Vanilla, cinnamon, and salt: are essential for that peach pie flavor!
Tips for making this peach pie smoothie recipe
Use flavorful peaches. Hard, early-season peaches that taste bland will make a bland smoothie. So, choose ripe juicy peaches.
Use ripe bananas. Green bananas will taste starchy, under sweet, and bland. Very over-ripe bananas will overpower the peach flavor in the smoothie.
Don’t skip the salt. A pinch of salt (1/16 teaspoon) will marry all the flavors together while providing an essential electrolyte. This will help keep you hydrated.
This smoothie is easily customizable. Use your favorite plant-based milk and nut butter. Toss in a couple of fresh figs. Thicken it with the optional protein boosters above. This is your smoothie!
