Instructions

Add the milk to a high-speed blender first.
Add the frozen banana, rolled oats, pure vanilla extract, and fine sea salt.
Add the ice cubes last.
Blend on low for 10 seconds, then increase to high and blend for 35–50 seconds, until completely smooth.
Check the consistency. Blend in 1–2 tablespoons additional milk if too thick, or a few extra ice cubes if too thin.
Pour into a 16-ounce glass and serve immediately.

Tips

Use rolled oats for a creamier texture; quick oats can be used but may change consistency. For a dairy-free version, substitute milk with almond or oat milk.
