Smoothie vs Milkshakes

Smoothie is a healthy beverage made using using milk, yogurt and fruits. It is not very sweet and no rich ingredients like ice creams are used. Smoothie is filling and light on the stomach. Grains, seeds, nuts and dry fruits can also be used in smoothie.

Milkshake is sweet, rich and creamy made of milk, fruits, ice creams and sometimes candy and cookies too. Milkshakes are made by just blending ice creams with milk. Nuts and fruits are added as topping.

Oats Smoothie Ingredients

  • Oats – You can use rolled oats or quick cooking oats or even steel cut oats. I prefer to use rolled oats as it is more tasty and feels wholesome.
  • Dairy – Use milk that is boiled and cooled down. Do not use raw milk. If you are vegan replace milk with soya milk or oats milk or even almond milk.
  • Sweetener – I have used raw honey here. You can replace it with sugar or jaggery syrup or dates soaked in milk.
  • Flavoring – I have used vanilla extract as banana goes well with it. You can even add cardamom powder or any other flavoring of your choice.
