Because the oatmeal is ground in the blender, you can use any kind of oats you have on hand. I most often use rolled oats, but quick oats work too.

Strawberry Kiwi Smoothie, and Blueberry Cream Oatmeal Smoothie. The next time you have spotty bananas on your counter, peel and cut them into pieces, then freeze them in a ziptop bag. They make any smoothie thick, naturally sweet, and creamy. If you are in a hurry to freeze your bananas, you can cut the slices thinly and spread them in a single layer on a parchment-lined plate or baking sheet. Pop them in to your freezer, and they’ll harden within a half hour. If you don’t have any frozen bananas, you can use fresh banana. Your smoothie will be more liquidy, so pop in a few ice cubes at the end to thicken it up.

The healthy fat and protein in peanut butter are a big part of what makes this oatmeal smoothie so filling. It’s just the touch of richness the smoothie recipe needs to taste satisfying and not like something you’re stuck eating. You can use crunchy peanut butter also, though I prefer the smoothness of creamy. I’m a sucker for the flavor of maple and oatmeal together. A half tablespoon was plenty for me, but feel free to adjust to your taste. Maple syrup makes this oatmeal smoothie vegan, but you can swap honey if that isn’t a concern.

Replace half of the banana with frozen strawberries. If you’d like it to be a peanut butter oatmeal smoothie no bananas, you can replace the bananas with strawberries entirely.
