Blueberry Almond Smoothie Ingredients

Before going keto, I loved smoothies, especially in the summer. Now that I have to ditch a lot of that fruit, I think it is great to have a great recipe like this one on hand to be able to still enjoy a low carb smoothie without all the carbs.

The Ingredients

Blueberries: Use fresh or frozen blueberries. Frozen berries make the smoothie thicker and frostier. Substitute with other berries like strawberries or blackberries if desired.
Almond Milk: Unsweetened almond milk keeps the smoothie low-carb. Swap with Keto Milk, coconut milk, hemp milk, or peanut milk depending on your preference.
Vanilla Extract: Adds a hint of sweetness and warmth. For a different flavor, try almond extract or a dash of cinnamon.
Whey Protein Isolate: Provides a protein boost. If unavailable, use Greek yogurt or a scoop of Amino Z whey protein isolate powder.
Double Cream: Adds richness and creaminess. You can replace it with coconut cream for a dairy-free option or omit it for a lighter smoothie.

Variations of Flavours

Berry Explosion: Swap out half the blueberries for raspberries or strawberries for a mixed berry delight.
Chocolate Almond: Add a tablespoon of cocoa powder or chocolate-flavored protein powder for a rich, chocolaty twist.
Coconut Dream: Substitute the almond milk with coconut milk and top with shredded coconut for a tropical vibe.

Ways to Prepare

While a Blueberry Almond Milk Smoothie is best served fresh, here are a few alternative ways to enjoy it:

Smoothie Bowl: Pour the blended smoothie into a bowl and top with granola, nuts, seeds, or fresh berries.
Popsicles: Pour the smoothie into popsicle moulds and freeze for a cool, healthy treat.
Overnight Oats: Stir the smoothie into a jar of oats and refrigerate overnight for a grab-and-go breakfast.

What to Serve with It

Pair your Blueberry Almond Smoothie with a handful of mixed nuts, a slice of low-carb toast with almond butter, or some scrambled eggs for a well-rounded meal.

Best Ways for Storing

If you need to store your smoothie, keep it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Give it a good shake or stir before drinking, as separation may occur. You can also freeze it in ice cube trays and blend the cubes when ready to drink.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this smoothie dairy-free?

Yes! Simply omit the Greek yogurt and whey protein isolate and replace with a dairy-free alternative like coconut yogurt and egg white protein powder.

How can I make this smoothie more filling?

You can add a tablespoon of chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a half avocado to increase the fibre and healthy fat content, making the smoothie more satisfying. I like to add a couple of raw eggs to my shakes for an added protein and omega boost.

What can I use instead of whey protein isolate?

If you prefer a plant-based option, use a vegan protein powder made from peas, hemp, or brown rice without sacrificing the integrity of the recipe. You can also add unflavored (or flavoured) collagen powder to the shake.
