Blackberry and Oat Smoothie

It wasn't long ago that I used to sneer at all those smoothie snobs. I'd sit there reading the gossip magazines as all the celebrities waxed lyrical about how much they love super-healthy smoothies and think what liars- who would ever choose to eat mushed up berries as their breakfast of choice?! Well, I have now become enlightened. It's basically a legitimate excuse to eat something with the sweetness of a dessert first thing in the morning. Not that I would need an excuse anyway...


Blackberry and Oat Smoothie

Ingredients: (Serves 1)

  • 150g blackberries 
  • 4 tbsp natural yoghurt
  • 1 small tbsp sweetner 
  • 1/4 cup of crushed ice
  • 2 tbsp oats 

Method:

  • Pour the blackberries, yoghurt, ice and sweetner into a blender. Blend on high for a couple of minutes until the smoothie has no lumps.
  • Add in the oats and stir in.
  • Pour into a glass, sprinkle a few more oats on top and enjoy.
