This quick smoothie evokes the flavors of your favorite crisp by blending together fruit with oats, date and cinnamon to echo the toasty topping, and yogurt, milk and vanilla to mimic the sweet creaminess of vanilla ice cream. Using frozen fruit means you can skip the ice, which creates a fuller-flavored smoothie. Use one type of fruit or a mix of stone fruit like peaches, nectarines or cherries; and berries like strawberries, blueberries, blackberries or raspberries.

Terri

Are the oats cooked?

RB

@Terri They’re not cooked oats. Be sure you have a really good blender or you’ll end up with big chunks of raw oats.

SEB

Great! I didn't have dates so I used date syrup.

HeatherNC

I'm confused about the nutritional information. The recipe claims to make '1 to 2 servings' and calls for yogurt of 'any fat percentage,' which would have a variety of potential calories, fat, etc. What is the given nutritional information reflecting?

Miss Havisham

I subbed half a package of tofu for the yogurt.
