Why this recipe works

Purée provides even berry flavour and colour, while oats thicken the drink as they hydrate. Yoghurt supplies creaminess and enough acidity to keep banana from dominating.

Practical tips and variations

• Soak oats for ten minutes if using a lower-powered blender.
• Add milk gradually for a thicker smoothie.
• Check the purée label before adding any sweetener.

Serving and storage

Best served immediately. Refrigerate in a sealed bottle for up to one day and shake well before drinking.

Frequently asked questions

Can I make it dairy-free?

Yes. Use oat drink and plant-based yoghurt, checking each label.

How can I make it thicker?

Use a frozen banana or reduce the milk by 50ml.

Can I prepare it overnight?

Yes, but the oats will continue to thicken it, so add a splash of milk before drinking.
