Creamy, delicious banana oat smoothie is filling and creamy from the banana, almond milk and blended oats with a delicious cinnamon flavor. It’s loaded with good ingredients like almond butter but tastes like a decadent dessert!

My sweet-tooth cravings mostly hit at night and I have been dabbling in real food options to prevent me from going into full swing crazy chocolate lady mode on a regular basis.

This banana oat smoothie is a winner either as a sweet start to the day or to satisfy that sweet craving whenever it strikes. The taste is somewhat like an almond flavored horchata. Cinnamon forward and so good!

Almond milk smoothies are a great way to get that creamy deliciousness of a milkshake without any dairy. You can play around with the ingredients on this recipe to create all kinds of liquid treats.

For a unique twist, sometimes I use this espresso almond butter, which is simply divine. I’m a coffee fiend and the hint of java flavor in that little combo makes my day.

It’s perfectly awesome with regular almond butter too though, which is the route I normally take. If you want to get super fancy, toasting the oats adds a level of decadence that fully launches this almond milk smoothie into the desert category.

    Just made this and we loved it! I was making a double batch of it and accidentally doubled the cinnamon on top of that and it still was not overboard on the cinnamon flavor! Great smoothie and very filling–I’ll make this again!

    Hey, my hits will help you make it to that big lofty goal! I love to read blogs and found you from your mom and am fascinated by the fact that you are an author. Having grown up costarvenive menno (I’m now city menno on the east coast) I find your comments on pop culture to be very interesting. It’s very fun because I know where you are coming from! Thanks for posting.
