What delicious and healthy ingredients are in this smoothie?
Almond Milk: A great neutral flavour for this smoothie but you can also substitute regular milk or another plant-based milk (oat milk would work great!)
Vanilla Protein Powder: I especially like to add a scoop of protein powder if I’m enjoying this smoothie post-workout or as breakfast so it keep’s me full for a couple of hours.
Dates: Are a great source of antioxidants and fibre.
Almond Butter: Adds a bit of protein and healthy fats to this smoothie.
Cinnamon: Brings all the flavours together.
Maple Syrup: Adds a little sweetness and is a great natural sweetener.
Rolled Oats: Makes this smoothie hearty and enhances the oatmeal cookie flavour.

Expert tips
- If you’re looking to add more creaminess to this smoothie, add 1-2 tablespoons of plain Greek yogurt.
- Other nutritious add-ins to this smoothie: 1 tablespoon of hemp seeds, chia seeds or flaxseed meal.
- If you prefer a less-sweet smoothie, start by using 1 date, blending and then adjust with adding the second date or leaving it out depending on your tastes.
Common questions
I’ve tested this oatmeal smoothie with vegan and whey based vanilla protein powders and both work well!
You can use whichever type of milk you’d like but I find almond milk does go well to enhance the ‘oatmeal cookie’ flavour. Oat or cashew milk would most likely be delicious too!
How to store
I recommend enjoying this smoothie as soon as it’s made!

Skipped the ice because I don’t like it in smoothies and just added another spoon of protein powder. My dates were old so I had to blend for longer. This was SUPER delicious. Hit the spot for me and my two buddies!
