Instructions

Layer your liquids first: Pour the unsweetened almond milk and the Greek yogurt into your high-speed blender base
Add the 'Shortcake' elements: Toss in the gluten-free rolled oats, vanilla protein powder, vanilla extract, and almond butter
Incorporate the fruit: Add the frozen strawberries on top of the other ingredients
Blend until velvety: Secure the lid and start the blender on a low speed, gradually increasing to high for 45 to 60 seconds until smooth
Check the consistency: Adjust thickness with more almond milk or frozen berries as needed
Pour and garnish: Pour the mixture into a chilled glass and top with a slice of fresh strawberry and a sprinkle of crushed oats

Notes

Use frozen strawberries for thickness; if using fresh, add ice to maintain texture.

For a silkier texture, grind the oats into flour before blending.

A pinch of sea salt enhances sweetness.
