This Pear Smoothie is a healthy breakfast smoothie with vanilla almond milk, banana, and ginger. A delicious 4-ingredient vegan breakfast drink.

Pear Smoothies are normally made with high-sugar milk and sometimes loaded with high-fructose corn syrup to make them sweeter. So a classic pear smoothie is not necessarily that healthy. My recipe below is super healthy!

Ingredients

  • 1 Pear peeled, cored, frozen
  • 1 Banana ripe, frozen
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Ginger
  • 1 cup Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk

Instructions

  • Throw all your ingredients into a blender and blend until nice and smooth.
    Use frozen banana or add one tablespoon of rolled oat for an even thicker consistency.
  • Decorate your Pear Smoothie with a touch of cinnamon.

Notes

Breakfast option: for a thicker and more fulfilling smoothie, I recommend adding one tablespoon of rolled oat or millet flakes if gluten-free.
Fruits:  if you don’t have frozen pear on hand, you can use unfrozen pear. The smoothie will be a little less creamy and thick. Add 2-3 more ice cubes to compensate!

Making this recipe is super-quick as it only takes a few minutes and 4 ingredients.

  • Pear – Pear is a simple, healthy fruit loaded with nutrients. To make this recipe frothier, you can store your pears in the freezer.
  • Banana – the ripeness of your banana will affect the sweetness of the recipe. Bananas with dark spots are much sweeter and will make the recipe quite sweet. For frothier smoothies, freeze your bananas!
  • Ginger – fresh and grated.
  • Almond Milk – opt for unsweetened vanilla almond milk. If you are allergic to almonds, you can use coconut milk, oat milk, or peanut milk.

How To Make A Pear Smoothie

Making this pear smoothie recipe is super easy.

  1. To do so, pour the 4 ingredients into the jug of a high-speed blender and blend for about a minute.
  2. Pour the pear smoothie into two tall glasses and decorate them with: Grated vanilla, A banana slice, and Ginger or cinnamon powder.

    Storage Instructions

    This Pear Smoothie is not something you can prepare a long time ahead. If you let it rest, the various ingredients will split with the heavier bits falling to the bottom and the water from the milk and fruits floating to the top. You can, of course, stir it again, but it won’t have the same great taste. So I recommend not making this more than 10 minutes before enjoying it.
