Blueberry Yogurt Smoothie – Yummy Toddler Food

Made with simple yet nutritious ingredients, this Blueberry Yogurt Smoothie is a deliciously creamy breakfast or snack to share with the kids. Plus, it’s high in fiber and protein…and tastes so good!

We rely on smoothies as a regular healthy toddler breakfast and snack option, and this blueberry version is one of our all-time favorites. The recipe is super simple with just a few ingredients; it’s nutrient rich with fiber, probiotics, calcium, and protein; and it just tastes great.

You can serve this smoothie to babies, toddlers, kids, and adults in a reusable pouch, smoothie cup, or open cup. And if you have leftovers, simply freeze into a fruit popsicle for another day!

Ingredients You Need

Here’s a look at the ingredients you need to have on hand to make this Blueberry Yogurt Smoothie so you know what to pick up from the store or have ready.

• Frozen blueberries: I prefer to use frozen wild blueberries in this recipe since the color winds up brighter and the flavor more distinctly blueberry, but regular frozen ones also work. Use what you have or prefer.
• Greek yogurt: Using thicker Greek-style yogurt results in a creamier smoothie, so it is my preference here. I typically use plain to keep the added sugars low, but you can also use vanilla if you prefer.
• Milk: Adding a splash of milk of any kind (dairy or nondairy) ensures that the mixture is easy to blend.
• Hemp seeds, or peanut, almond, cashew, OR sunflower seed butter (optional): You can add any of these to increase the protein and fiber as you like.

How to Store

This Blueberry Smoothie is best served on the day it’s made, though you can make it ahead and store it in the fridge for up to 4-6 hours in an airtight container or reusable pouch.

Best Tips for Success

• Try adding a few tablespoons of avocado or ½ cup of frozen mango, banana, or mashed roasted sweet potato.
• If the smoothie is too thick for your little one to drink through their sippy cup or straw, stir in a little water or milk to thin.
• Use frozen wild blueberries for a more vivid color and brighter berry flavor.
