Notes

  • Frozen Strawberries: I do not recommend using fresh instead of frozen strawberries. The frozen strawberries are responsible for the thick and creamy texture of this smoothie. If you use fresh ones, the smoothie will turn out much thinner. 
  • Oat Milk: Any dairy-free kind of milk works here such as almond milk or soy milk, as does regular whole milk. 
  • Adjust Sweetness: This smoothie is naturally sweetened with dates. Add more dates for some extra sweetness or replace with honey or maple syrup if you don't have excess to dates.
