Fresh-baked cinnamon roll, crammed into a glass!

Cinnamon Roll Smoothie - FamilyFreshMeals.com -- Such a yummy smoothie!

One of the best things about smoothies is that there really are no limits to what you can do with them. From light and fruity to rich and creamy, the variations are absolutely endless. Another great thing about them is that they’re like dessert, but much healthier.

No matter what your favorite dessert is, from a banana split to pumpkin pie, you can whip up a smoothie version of it in minutes. Throw a few things in the blender, hit the button, and boom! Dessert in a glass.

So it should come as no surprise that the latest entry in my Sunday Smoothie lineup is the Cinnamon Roll Smoothie. Basically, just imagine taking all the sweet, sticky, spicy indulgence of a fresh-baked cinnamon roll and cramming it into a glass. The only thing you can leave out is the guilt, because this Cinnamon Roll Smoothie is low-fat and packed with healthy fruit and oatmeal.

A cinnamon roll you can sip through a straw. You can’t beat that-but you can blend it.

Note: If you do not have frozen fruit to use for the smoothies, fresh fruit will work just fine. If using fresh fruit, make sure to add a handful of ice to the other ingredients before blending. The frozen fruit just adds that cold element to make an ice cold drink.

    Hi Corey! I can’t have bananas but this recipe sounds so delicious. Do you know of any substitutions?

      Hmmmm. You could just try to up the yogurt and oats 🙂 Let me know how that turns out 🙂

        I think I will try partially freezing the extra yogurt I add in cubes and maybe that will make up for the thickness from the bananas.

          Frozen avocado works great in place of bananas. Makes your smoothie extra creamy too ?

    Can’t have almond milk, can you use low fat or 1 % milk instead? Getting ready to make them today.

    I can’t wait to try this. I’m a regular banana smoothie wizzer but adding the cinnamon is a great idea. Iv never had the almond milk, I usually use regular milk… Now ‘m extra excited because Iv just found an online recipe for making almond milk in my thermomix. Thanks for the prompt:)

    Would it be ok to use regular yogurt instead of Greek yogurt?

      Yep! The Greek yogurt just beefs up the protein 🙂

      I don’t Terese, because it would depend on what brand of yogurt you are using. I like to plug my recipes into My Fitness Pal to get nutritional breakdowns 🙂

    OK silly question but I’ve seen some smoothie recipes that calls for the oatmeal to be cooked. Am I using uncooked or cooked oatmeal in this?

    Reply

      June 14, 2016 at 3:11 pm

      Not silly at all Serena 🙂 For this smoothie you want it uncooked.

    I know this is definitely a breakfast drink, but I definitely made this as my “midnight snack” tonight and even added in a pinch of Nutella and peanut butter… Oops! So much for healthy! Lol
    I LOVE this smoothie and I love how most of the ingredients were already in my home, so I didn’t have to go out and buy anything!
    10/10!

    Corey, thank you for this recipe! I modified it for my Low FODMAP diet. I omitted the vanilla yogurt and almond milk, and instead used Paleo Protein Egg White Protein powder (unflavored) and just water. Tastes great! My family is eating those delicious cinnamon rolls from Annie’s (canned) (cuz homemade is so hard with a 2yo and 4yo hanging on me), and I’m enjoying my smoothie!
    Ps: my 4yo is Korey as well, just with a K.

      You might need to re-blend it the morning of Amanda. I would also store it in the freezer the night before and then reblend in the morning.

    @Karyn, @Suzanne: This combination of ingredients would average about 220 total, but divide that by 2 since this recipe makes 2 smoothies. So 110 calories each (will vary just a little depending on the brand of yogurt used).

  29. karin07 says

    Correction on the calorie count for this recipe (I left out an ingredient).

    It averages 175 per 8 ounces, or per serving. Note this recipe makes 2 servings. Allow for small variation on this total, depending on brands of yogurt and almond milk used.
