Banana And Plum Smoothie Recipe

The banana plum smoothie recipe tastes best with sun-ripened raw plums. The stone fruit is a good source for vitamin A, C and K.

Transform this seasonal smoothie into a healthy breakfast  replacing drink by adding a quarter cup of oats before blending.

The oats provide longer-lasting slow-burning sustenance and with this help to stay alert for longer. For variation add a quarter teaspoon of vanilla essence and, or ground cinnamon.

It is in the cooks' hands what base liquid to add. Plums work well with full cream milk or yogurt as well as with kefir. The liquid base determines how creamy the smoothie tastes.

By choosing a nut-milk, soy-milk or rice-milk, the plum smoothie supports a vegan diet. The amount of liquid in relation to pureed fruit gives a more or less runny fruit drink.
