This almond butter smoothie is brimming with goodness: frozen berries, creamy banana, hemp seeds, and almond butter to help keep you full. There’s even a bit of secret spinach in there, but you’ll never taste it. It’s a delicious way to start your day!

Looking down on an Almond Butter Smoothie - 1

I love starting my day with a smoothie, mainly because they’re so easy. They come together quickly, are easy to take with you as you get ready, and make it simple to get some fruit (and sometimes veggies) in first thing. This almond butter smoothie is one of my favorites, and it’s such a good way to kick off the morning.

There’s also something about smoothies that feels especially summery. Sipping on something cold, creamy, and loaded with bananas and berries feels fresh and breezy, like the easiest possible start to a warm day. It’s the kind of breakfast that feels like a treat without any effort.

Flavor-wise, this one really delivers. Sweet and tart berries blend into creamy banana, almond butter adds a subtle nutty richness, and a handful of hemp seeds brings a little texture and extra oomph. Best of all, it’s a total crowd-pleaser — easy enough for sleepy mornings, but good enough to serve at a laid-back brunch.

Variations

At least 50% of why I love smoothies so much is the mindlessness of them. Throw a few things in your blender, turn it on, and breakfast is made. In less than 5 minutes you can have a sweet and delicious berry smoothie ready to carry around the house with you as you get ready in the morning. Here are some things you can throw in to change the flavor:

  • Peanut butter smoothie: Out of almond butter? Peanut butter works just as well.
  • Bee sweet: Want to sweeten things up? Add a squeeze of honey!
  • Berry swap: This delicious berry almond butter smoothie works with whatever berries you’ve got. Blueberries, raspberries, strawberries… or all three for a triple berry combo!
  • Other fruit: Don’t stop there – you can throw in some mango, pineapple, kiwi, peaches, or whatever fruit you like.
  • Chocolate bliss: Scoop in some cocoa powder for a delicious chocolate twist.
  • Hearty boost: Scoop in some collagen powder or a big spoonful of Greek yogurt.

How to make an almond butter smoothie bowl

You can easily turn this recipe into a delicious almond butter smoothie bowl! Smoothie bowls tend to have a slightly thicker consistency than smoothies that you drink, so you’ll want to use slightly less water OR add chia seeds to the mix. Chia seeds expand when soaked in liquid, so they’ll thicken your smoothie. Pour it into a bowl and sprinkle on your favorite toppings, like this vanilla almond granola .
