Here’s a brief overview of the ingredients:

  • Frozen sliced peaches – Frozen peach slices contribute a delightful sweetness and bring a burst of natural juiciness and peach flavor to smoothies. When blended in their frozen state, they help create a frosty, velvety consistency similar to sorbet.
  • Banana – The natural sweetness and creamy texture of bananas are crucial in achieving a great-tasting, thick smoothie. You can use fresh or frozen banana.
  • Milk – You can use whole milk, 2%, or your preferred non-dairy milk like almond, coconut, or oat milk as your creamy smoothie base. Just know that your smoothie might not be as creamy if you use non-dairy milk.
  • Honey – It acts as a natural sweetener, imparting a rich, announced sweetness without relying on refined sugars. See ‘Variations’ for alternatives.
  • Vanilla extract – A touch of aromatic vanilla harmonizes with the fruity essence of peaches and bananas.
  • Cinnamon & allspice – These popular warming spices complement the sweetness of the fruits and enhance the overall flavor profile.

Recipe Tips

Here are tips and tricks that set you up for smoothie-making success:

  • Of course, you can make this smoothie with fresh or frozen peaches and fresh or frozen bananas. However, frozen fruits are easier to blend into a thick, creamy consistency, so I recommend frozen fruit.
  • Consider an extra creamy base like yogurt or a dairy-free alternative to enhance the smoothie’s richness.
  • Customize the thickness of your smoothie by relying more on frozen fruits for a thicker texture and milk for a lighter version. Start with a small amount and gradually add more until you reach your desired consistency.

Variations

Here are some variations of this peach and banana smoothie to consider:

  • Fruit combinations – For a refreshing twist, experiment with additional fruits like strawberries, mangoes, or pineapple.
  • Natural sweeteners – Instead of honey, explore alternatives like maple syrup, agave nectar, or Medjool dates for a different sweetness profile without refined sugars.
  • Stealthy vegetables – Sneak in nutrient-rich vegetables such as spinach or kale; their mild flavors won’t overpower the fruity goodness while boosting the nutritional value.
  • Healthy toppings – Step up your peach banana smoothie game with toppings like chia seeds, ground flax seeds, granola, or a sprinkle of coconut flakes for added texture and nutrition.
  • Protein boost – Add a scoop of your favorite protein powder, Greek yogurt, or nut butter to increase the protein content.

Storing & Freezing

Storing: If you have extra smoothie, refrigerate it in an airtight container and consume it within 24 hours.

Freezing: To freeze, pour the smoothie into ice cube trays or silicone molds. Once frozen solid, transfer the frozen smoothie cubes to a resealable freezer bag and store them in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it necessary to peel peaches for smoothies?

Frozen peaches are typically already peeled. If you have fresh peaches, peeling them is optional and depends on personal preference. Leaving the skins on adds extra fiber and nutrients, but feel free to peel them for a smoother texture.

Can I make this smoothie ahead of time?

While it’s best enjoyed fresh, you can prepare and portion the ingredients in baggies and store them separately in the freezer. Then, all you have to do is throw everything in the blender when you’re ready.

Can I make this smoothie with ice or water instead of milk?

Yes, feel free to substitute water for a lighter base or use ice to add chill without altering the flavor.

This option is perfect for reducing calorie intake or creating a lighter dairy-free smoothie. Adjust the quantity based on your desired thickness and temperature.
