Method
Prepare Ingredients
If you prefer a thinner smoothie, use a little more almond milk (increase by 2–4 tablespoons). If your berries are only partly frozen, add 4 ice cubes to the blender.
Blend
Add boosters
Sprinkle the ground flaxseed (or chia seeds) and the rolled oats into the blender. Add ice cubes if using.
Blend to smooth
Secure the blender lid and blend on high for 45–90 seconds, or until smooth and creamy. Stop and scrape down the sides with a spatula if necessary, then blend again briefly to fully combine. The smoothie should be pourable but thick.
Adjust & Serve
Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness or thickness: add an extra 1/2 tablespoon honey for more sweetness, or 2–4 tablespoons almond milk to thin. Blend briefly after adjustments.
Pour the smoothie into a tall glass. Garnish with a fresh mint leaf and an extra berry or banana slice if desired. Serve immediately.
