Starting the day with a healthy smoothie for breakfast helps to simplify your routine while still loading up your meal with quality nutrients.
As a Nutritionist, I love making a healthy breakfast smoothie for myself or recommending it to clients, especially those who are short on time.
And over here at Autumn Elle Nutrition, we're very well known for our healthy smoothies. We even have a full cookbook dedicated to it!
Plus, if you're on a weight loss journey, having a smoothie for breakfast can be an easy way to get the nutrients you need to support fat loss. In fact, this is the exact strategy many of our community members use to help them achieve their weight loss and wellness goals.
We load up our smoothies with protein, fat and fiber to keep blood sugar levels stable, prevent hunger, reduce snacking and make it easy for the body to burn fat as fuel.
I'm sharing 17 of our top healthy smoothies for breakfast, including coffee smoothies, fruit smoothies, peanut butter smoothies and more.
These healthy smoothies for breakfast will help make your mornings more exciting and tasty with minimal prep.
This post is all about healthy smoothies for breakfast.
Best Healthy Smoothies For Breakfast
Healthy Blueberry Smoothie
I consider blueberries to be a classic smoothie ingredient. It's loaded with antioxidants and generally low in sugar, making it a great fruit to use in a smoothie while working toward a weight loss goal.
My Blueberry Mint Probiotic Smoothie has the additional perks of natural probiotics to support gut health, too.
Healthy Peanut Butter Smoothie
Another classic smoothie ingredient!
Although don't be fooled by the "protein" listed on the peanut butter label. This type of protein is very poorly absorbed, so it should not be considered your protein source when using peanut butter in a smoothie.
Instead, we use peanut butter as a source of blood sugar stabilizing fat and get our protein in this smoothie from high quality, weight loss supporting ingredients like greek yogurt and zero added sugar protein powder.
This smoothie has all those creamy, dreamy, peanut buttery vibes that you're looking for.
Post-Workout Smoothie
If you're like me and enjoy getting your exercise done first thing in the morning, then you're going to love our healthy post-workout smoothie recipe.
This recipe not only contains the protein needed for muscle recovery, it also has electrolytes to help prevent muscle cramps and soreness, making it a great healthy smoothie for breakfast.
Cinnamon Roll Smoothie
What you'll taste in this smoothie is cinnamon goodness. What you won't taste are all of the added health benefits packed into it!
This cinnamon roll smoothie uses brazil nuts to load up on selenium, which supports liver detox. It also sneaks in some maca for the studied hormone balancing perks.
Healthy Green Smoothie
Green smoothies can often be bland or weirdly chunky. But not this one!
Our healthy green smoothie uses anti-inflammatory ginger, low glycemic load pineapple and vitamin C packed lemon to add a ton of flavor to the otherwise bland "spinach" smoothie.
Raspberry Smoothie
Did you know raspberries are one of the highest fiber fruits? It's also incredibly low in sugar!
We doubled down on the fiber perks of this smoothie by also adding in edible basil seeds, which are similar to chia seeds but without the lectins.
Because of these ingredients, this smoothie has a full 25 grams of fiber per serving which is roughly what most people need to eat in a day!
Golden Milk Smoothie
Our recipe combines the anti-inflammatory perks of ginger, turmeric and kefir for a healthy smoothie for breakfast. We also add in some almond butter and protein powder to make sure it's a complete meal to help support a weight loss or wellness goal.
Creamy, dreamy and delicious!
Strawberry Protein Smoothie
It's hard to go wrong with a classic strawberry smoothie!
But we made this recipe even better by adding in greek yogurt, chia seeds and protein powder to make it super satisfying.
Healthy Apple Smoothie
You know what they say. An apple a day keeps the doctor away!
This healthy apple smoothie contains blood sugar stabilizing flaxseed and protein powder to help keep you fuller longer. You can also make this into a smoothie bowl by adding toppings!
We love sprinkling on pecans, coconut flakes and bee pollen.
Pineapple Protein Smoothie
I love using pineapple in smoothies. In fact, I think it might be my favorite fruit to use in smoothie recipes!
There's something very refreshing about pineapple that makes you feel clean and wholesome when you eat (or drink!) it.
My Vanilla Pineapple Protein Smoothie uses hemp seeds, coconut butter and vanilla extract to keep you full while also making you feel like you're on a tropical vacation.
Pumpkin Spice Smoothie
During early September when you really want to start getting into the fall spirit but it's currently 80 degrees out, you can opt for my Pumpkin Spice Latte Smoothie!
This smoothie uses a mixture of pumpkin puree, banana and greek yogurt to make it super creamy. It also adds in traditional pumpkin spice seasonings for those warming, cozy vibes.
Almond Butter Smoothie
I love having this almond butter smoothie after a tough workout.
It has the protein to aid in muscle recovery and the creamy almond buttery goodness to keep you satisfied for multiple hours.
Coffee Smoothie
If you like a little boost of caffeine in your breakfast smoothie, then this recipe is for you.
We used chilled brewed coffee with coconut butter, chia seeds, banana and protein powder to load up on protein, fat and fiber.
I also love adding unsweetened toasted coconut flakes as a crunchy topping!
Collagen Smoothie
Collagen is a type of incomplete protein that's needed to support healthy skin and joints.
I always make sure to combine collagen powder with other complete sources of protein, such as protein powder or greek yogurt, to make sure I'm getting the full spectrum of health and fat loss benefits.
Warm Smoothie
Does a warm smoothie sound strange to you? Because it definitely did to me the first time I heard of it!
But AEN Team member Katy convinced me otherwise with her Warming Mocha Smoothie Bowl with "Chocolate" Drizzle.
Especially if you live in an area where the winters get too cold to sip on a smoothie, this warm smoothie recipe will be a game changer for you.
Blueberry Kale Smoothie
I only like to use frozen kale in smoothies. Fresh kale can be too hard on the GI tract and leach important nutrients out of your meal.
Frozen kale is steamed before being frozen, which helps to break down the anti-nutrients found in kale while leaving behind important minerals and vitamins.
Healthy Tropical Smoothie
My healthy topical smoothie sneaks in two different veggies and anti-inflammatory ginger to support weight loss and wellness goals while still giving you those Hawaii vacation vibes.
And just like every smoothie on my list, it's also packed with protein to keep you full and satisfied.
