🔪 How to Make Healthy Peach Smoothie
Add all of the ingredients to a high powered blender.
Blend until everything is well combined and smooth.
Serve immediately.
💡 Tips for Making the Best Smoothie
- Choose a ripe banana: For this recipe, you want to use a ripe banana because it has more natural sweetness and a softer texture. This helps give your smoothie a creamy texture and extra sweetness.
- Unsweetened almond milk: Choosing unsweetened almond milk allows you to control the sweetness of the smoothie. It's a lighter alternative to regular cow’s milk. You can also use cashew milk if you prefer.
- Frozen peaches: Ice can dilute the flavors of a fruit smoothie. That’s why your peaches must be frozen hard. They will chill the smoothie without watering it down.
- Pulse before blending: If your blender has a pulse function, hit it a few times to break down larger frozen chunks. This can make it easier for the blades to blend everything evenly.
- Scrape the sides: You may find it helpful to pause blending occasionally to scrape down the sides of the blender container with a spatula.
☑️ Storage Instructions
You'll want to serve this smoothie right after you make it, while the peaches are still frozen. If you have leftovers, you can store them in the fridge for a few hours. Just give it a good stir before drinking.
🔄 Substitutions and Additions
The great thing about smoothies is that the add-ins and variations are endless. Feel free to use some of these suggestions to come up with your own fun and creative ideas.
- Berries: Add frozen strawberries and/or blueberries. They pair well with the banana-peach flavors.
- Mango: Throw in some frozen mango chunks with the frozen peaches.
- Pineapples: Add a tropical twist and natural sweetness with chunks of fresh or frozen pineapple.
- Maple syrup: You can swap the honey with agave or maple syrup.
- Coconut flakes: Add a more tropical vibe with sweet and toasted coconut flakes.

Should I Peel Peaches for Smoothies?
It’s a personal choice. Most high-powered blenders will blend the skins so well that you can’t tell they’re there. There are added nutrients and flavor in the skin, so don’t feel like you have to peel them.
Is a Banana Smoothie Good for You?
You bet! Bananas are a good source of potassium, vitamin C, and vitamin B6. Potassium helps maintain healthy blood pressure levels, while vitamin C supports the immune system. Read more about the health benefits of bananas in this article.
Bananas have natural sugars that can give you a quick burst of energy. This makes them a great choice for a post-workout snack.
Why Do Bananas Make Smoothies Better?
The creamy texture of bananas adds a lot to the overall smoothness of the smoothies. Plus, they are naturally sweet, which makes them taste like a treat.
