Blueberry Pie Smoothie, that’s super creamy and warm to help take the chill out of the cold mornings. With the addition of porridge oats and lots of other delicious ingredients this breakfast smoothie is very satisfying as well as filling.
On a cold damp morning, more often than not I will automatically head to the cupboard and pull out an essential ingredient that gets overused in my house in the colder months: porridge oats. A warm comforting bowl of porridge seems like the perfect way to start the day when the weather isn’t up to much outside. Don’t get me wrong, I love my smoothies and regular blog readers will know this, however, the fact that they can be freezing cold does put me off them a little in autumn and winter.
A few of my smoothie favourites are my Turmeric & Coconut Smoothie, Chia Berry Blast Smoothie, Chocolate Pear Pudding Smoothie and Blood Orange and Cashew Smoothie.
What I love about smoothies is the convenience and speed in which you can make them. I often find myself killing two birds with one stone and drinking a nutrition packed smoothie while getting ready or checking my emails. If you love your smoothies but are put off by cold breakfasts in autumn and winter then the ideal solution is to make them warm.
A Blueberry Pie Smoothie, that’s super creamy and warm to help take the chill out of the cold mornings
- 100g fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1/2 banana
- 25 g porridge oats
- 300 ml almond milk
- 2 tbsp Greek yoghurt
- 2 tsp chia seeds
- 1-3 tsp honey or maple syrup (depending on your preferences)
-
First mix the porridge oats and almond milk together and cook in the microwave for a few minutes until combined.
-
In the meantime, pour all of the other ingredients into the blender and blitz together until smooth. When the porridge is ready, add it to the blender and blitz to incorporate into the smoothie.
-
Pour into your favourite mug or glass and enjoy!
With this smoothie, you get the best of both worlds: a delicious rich blueberry packed smoothie and a dose of warm oats. The porridge makes the smoothie silky smooth as well as the addition of the Greek yoghurt, which also helps to make this one very filling, so a great kick-start to the day. I think this one is a lovely introduction to smoothies as it tastes like dessert and my little boy loves it!

I’ve never properly given blueberries a chance – this makes for a great excuse to.
I could just drink this now it looks and sounds delicious. Thanks for sharing
Oooh that is amazing! What a fab idea, and also sounds healthy with the blueberries so I’m down for that!
I love a warm smoothie on a cold morning when a cold green smoothie doesn’t sound as appealing.
Oh my goodness how absolutely delicious does this look! There is something wonderful about a freshly made smoothie for sure!
Oh definitely, and they’re so quick to make too.
Such a fabulous smoothie, especially since blueberries are superfood. I would love to make this for my kids
Kids love it too! 🙂
I’ve really been getting into blueberries more recently so this sounds pretty tasty x
Yum! Thank you.
Mmm, this looks so good. I’m really into blueberries at the moment but it has been ages since I’ve had a smoothie. Like you, sometimes when it’s freezing cold outside the coldness of the smoothie makes me want to reach for something warmer.
Thank you! I think blueberries have to be my favourite berry.
That looks like an incredible smoothie- I may need to whip that one up myself!
Oh, do let me know if you give it a try. 🙂
Ooh yummy, love that its made with almond milk as I’m dairy intolerant. Do you think a dairy free yoghurt would switch out well rather than the greek yoghurt too? xxx
Absolutely. you could use a dairy-free yoghurt and that would be a great substitute.
What a beautiful sounding smoothie, I love that its warm and so easy to make x
Thank you. Smoothies are the best for their ease.
Oooh I do love a warm smoothie. Great minds think alike, as we have a blueberry muffin smoothie scheduled for next week. It must be the time for all things Blueberry 🙂
Ha! I love a good blueberry smoothie so yummy!
I have never had a warm smoothie but this sounds amazing 🙂 and very me with the ingredients 🙂
I too love adding oats to my smoothies as it makes the smoothie really filling. My favorite is adding strawberries but will definitely try it with blue berries next time, as your smoothie looks delicious.
Oh, yum! That sounds delicious.
This looks so tasty. I love Blueberries and they are a fab superfood too so very healthy and good!
Looks a yummy smoothie and I would love to try this perfect for my breakfast! Glad that you share this
