Creamy Avocado Blueberry Smoothie
Description
The Creamy Avocado Blueberry Smoothie blends frozen blueberries with almond milk, a small amount of avocado, and vanilla extract to create a smooth beverage. The avocado contributes a mild creaminess without overpowering the berries’ natural tartness. Almond milk keeps the smoothie dairy-free and light.
The mixture is blended until smooth, resulting in a velvety texture with balanced fruit and creamy elements. A teaspoon of powdered sweetener can be added, depending on taste preferences. The optional vanilla lends a gentle hint of warmth, but can be substituted with lemon or lime juice for a brighter note.
Served cold, this smoothie offers a nutrient-dense option for a quick snack or breakfast. Variations can include swapping almond milk with other plant-based milks or adding MCT oil for extra fat content.

- 1 oz / 30g avocado circa ¼ small avocado
- ¼ tsp vanilla extract

Instructions

Notes
- This recipe makes about 300 ml (10 fl oz) of smoothie with approximately 4.8g net carbs.
- Vanilla extract can be swapped for a squeeze of lemon or lime juice to add a tangy twist.
- Add a tablespoon of MCT oil for increased fat content if desired.
- Almond milk can be replaced with coconut milk or other nut and seed milks, but using dairy milk will increase carbohydrate content.
