Harnessing the power of all things not nutty but still deliciously creamy when blended, I have crafted a wholesome and healthy breakfast shake for you that tastes much more indulgent than it should be allowed to before 11am. Thick and rich like a milkshake, but made with good for you and your morning stuff like yogurt, oats, chia seeds, a hint of cacao, a little cinnamon, and SunButter!


It’s The Perfect Time of Year for a SunButter Breakfast Shake
We are slooooooooowly creeping closer towards the return of smoothie season and I am ready for it. As much as I love oatmeal and savory warm breakfasts, almost-ice-cream blender treats loaded with toppings are hard to beat. This shake falls somewhere in between––still cold and creamy but not pure frosty fruit, and it contains heartier ingredients like oatmeal and chia.
The beautiful mashup of overnight oats meets milkshake. The summer but a little shy smoothie jar. The springtime of blender breakfasts. Okay, I’ll stop.


What’s In This SunButter Breakfast Shake
Here’s what we’re blending:
- Non-dairy yogurt. I used one with an almond milk base, but any type will work. Opt for coconut or oat based to keep it nut-free. Opt for greek if you want your shake extra thick.
- Frozen banana. Just a half or one whole, depending on how sweet you want it. I tried a version with 1-2 pitted dates + ice too––yummy, but I preferred the banana.
- SunButter! This is what makes it super creamy and delicious and deserving of the title SHAKE. I used the natural variety here, which is lightly sweetened (and heavily delicious, of course ♡)
- Rolled oats. Gluten-free if necessary.
- Chia seeds. Hemp would be yummy too (or in addition!)
- Cacao powder. Or cocoa powder. Add more if you want it extra chocolatey, never wrong.
- Cinnamon. Optional, but I like it.
- Non-dairy milk to blend. More makes it thinner, less will make it thicker. I used almond milk, but use whatever you love. Opt for seed or oat milk to make it nut-free.


If that all sounds like good stuff to you too, onwards to the blending!

Wow thank you for the very kind words, Jennilyn! I am so happy you enjoy them 🙂
You’re inviting ME to have a SHAKE for BREAKFAST?? Can’t say no to that! I love everything about this ingredient list and these flavors. I bet there are many little tweaks you can make to change up the flavors too <3 No need to wait for Spring weather for me to make this one – although I am very much welcoming sunshine and warmer temps!
I am personally extending EXACTLY that invitation to you my dear🤗 Oh yes, endless tweaking possibilities! I hope you get some sunny warm weather soon, nature is the only thing keeping me sane these days😂❤️
Okay, yeah I need this to happen in my life!!!! I’ve been obsessed with sunbutter recently so I wanna try this.
I hope you do, its so good! And isn’t sunbutter THE BEST?!😋😋
This is my new fave smoothie! Tastes like a treat and not the healthy start to the day that it actually is. 😉 Thank you!
