Peach Smoothie Recipe
I am so excited that peach season is back!
Last summer, I picked peaches at a local farm with my family. I didn't think it was possible, but there are only so many bowls of peach ice cream and peach cobbler I can take before I get tired of dessert!
I froze the extra peaches and that's when I started making lots of peach smoothies. I've been perfecting this recipe ever since.
Why You'll Love this Recipe
This recipe is perfect for using fresh or frozen peaches. If you get the chance to hand pick your fruit, you can easily freeze peaches to make smoothies.
With only four simple ingredients, peach smoothies are an easy morning meal when you're in a rush. Plus, they only take about five minutes to make.
The combination of freshly picked peaches and creamy yogurt tastes amazing, like a peaches and cream milkshake, but better!
Ingredients
Frozen peaches are a must for this recipe! You can buy frozen peach chunks or par-freeze fresh peaches. If you're using store-bought frozen peaches, the smoothie color may be lighter and less sweet. Always go for peaches that are fresh and in season, if possible!
Low on peaches or looking for a tasty variation? Replace half the peaches with mango or strawberries.
A fresh banana helps to thicken smoothies, but you can also use frozen bananas.
You can use any type of yogurt. Non-dairy yogurt like unsweetened coconut yogurt is delicious with peaches. For a protein boost, I like to use Greek yogurt in smoothies.
I use unsweetened almond milk as the main liquid for blending. You can use dairy milk or another plant based milk if you prefer. Use whatever you have on hand!
Totally optional, but I like adding granola for a bit of crunch. I started to do this after having an acai bowl with my son on a trip to Austin. The additional texture is so good!

Before you start, you'll need to par-freeze the peaches. If you're using store-bought frozen peach chunks, you can skip this step!
- Slice the fresh peaches. There is no need to peel the peaches first, there is extra nutrition in the skin. Just make sure they are well washed!
- Lay the peach slices on a baking sheet in the freezer until they are frozen.
Once your frozen peaches are ready you can move on to making the smoothie:
- To start, add the yogurt and milk to your blender. The wet ingredients always go at the bottom of the smoothie!
- Next, you want to add the peaches and banana on top.
- Blend until smooth, scrape down the sides as needed to make sure all of the yogurt is incorporated.
- Just like that your peach yogurt smoothie is ready! Pour it into your glasses and garnish with yogurt, granola or fresh peaches.
Madison's Tips for Success:
I've tested this recipe and have successfully made it many times. Use these tips to ensure that it turns out perfectly for you, too!
- If you're using fresh peaches it is best to par-freeze them for a thick, creamy consistency!
- Adding the liquid to your blender first will help everything blend easier. You shouldn't have to blend for more than a minute or so.
- If your smoothie is too thick, add a splash of milk and blend again. If it's too thin, you can add more peaches or yogurt.
Are you cleaning your blender well? There's nothing like old caked-on gunk - or worse, an odor - to ruin your smoothie. Here's how to clean a blender properly.
Peach Smoothie FAQs
Tropical fruits and berries pair great with peaches! I don't recommend adding citrus fruits though, as the acid in them can curdle the milk.
Replace half of the peaches in this recipe with your whatever you have on hand. Two of my favorites to add are strawberries and mangos.
Yes! To store leftover smoothie, place it in an airtight container in the fridge and it will be good for another day or so.
Just give your smoothie a good shake before enjoying! To get it back to a thicker texture add some extra peaches or a few ice cubes and blend it again.
If your smoothie is too thick, add a splash of milk and blend again. I recommend adding ¼ cup at time since this recipe makes 3 smoothie servings.
If it's too thin, add more peaches or yogurt. Extra bananas or a few ice cubes will also work!
Serving Ideas
The peach smoothie is delicious as is, but you can have a lot of fun with how you serve it. To make a delicious peaches and cream smoothie, create layers of smoothie and yogurt in the glass a few times!
I often convert this recipe into a smoothie bowl for breakfast. Top your bowl with fresh peaches, strawberries, blueberries, homemade granola and more yogurt. You could also sprinkle some chia seeds, hemp hearts, or coconut flakes on top. Enjoy with a spoon!

I must admit that I'm not a big fan of peaches. But this smoothie is a good way for me to have the fruits that I now don't mind having peaches every week. But only in this smoothie though.
This is exactly what I need, especially this summer! This peach smoothie turned out to be so refreshing and tasty! Such a keeper!
