Pineapple Upside Down Smoothie

Pineapple Upside Down Smoothie

When it’s hot outside, you’ll find a smoothie in my hand nearly every day. For a quick breakfast, after a hot run, as a cool snack. All of the above. I need my smoothies to be satisfying, so I started adding a handful of uncooked rolled oats years ago. The reward is threefold: whole grains for nutrition, a thicker texture (especially if you let it sit for a while in the fridge), and a nice doughy taste that reminds me of pie crust.

Ingredients

This smoothie is inspired by a pineapple upside down cake. There is frozen pineapple (naturally), a date for a subtle “caramelized” flavor and sweetness, oats for that doughy taste, and vanilla Greek yogurt and milk to blend it all up. And of course – a cherry on top!!

Why you should put oats in your smoothies

You guys know that oats are so incredibly versatile, and if you haven’t put them in a smoothie yet you are missing out! The texture is superb. I often make two smoothies at once and have one later on for a snack or for breakfast the next day. Just like when you make overnight oats, the oats soak up the milk, and an oat-based smoothie will thicken over time and is fun to eat with a spoon! A 1/2 cup of Quaker Oats also adds 4 grams of fiber, so in addition to taste and texture you’re getting nutrition too.

How To Make a Pineapple Upside Down Smoothie

Gather your ingredients. I froze fresh pineapple for this recipe, but you can use frozen from a bag too. Or you could use fresh – just add some ice as well.

Don’t forget to take the pit out of your date! Slice it in half and remove.

Blend her on up!

    Hi Kath,

    Hope all is well! Had an unrelated question for you about your pottery barn couch…we are in the market for a pottery barn couch with chaise and wondering if you are still loving your couch and if you did the memory foam or down blend one? We are planning on the pb comfort couch and loveseat in leather for one room but for another room want to do the chaise option with a performance material. I have to check what we sat on in the store I think it was
    the memory foam. We are also trying to figure out if we need to go with a smaller option for the room and are also interested in the Buchanan, maybe the reversible chaise one because of the smaller profile but not sure of the comfort, etc. So many decisions! Any input is welcome! Thanks!

      Hey Jonna! We do still like the couch a lot. We have the memory foam and so far it’s good. I switch the back pillows around sometimes because they will get a little molded in one shape, but you can reverse them to fix it. The sunbrella fabric is good so far too!
