I know I should be making pumpkin recipes, I know I should say goodbye to summer, I know it’s almost getting too cold to be having smoothies, but…I just can’t help it!
The thing is, a couple of weeks ago, I bought a HUGE bag of raisins so that I could make oatmeal raisin cookies (can you believe I have never made any in my life??) but school keeps getting in the way of cookie making.
But getting food fixes is way easier when I have a blender. Instead of cookies, I can just make a smoothie!
I was a little hesitant at first. I mean, I once ordered a blueberry smoothie at a restaurant and it tasted like garlic then later a hint of blueberry, which totally freaked me out, because I thought I stepped into Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and I was going to turn into a giant blueberry.
But I’ve got to say, this smoothie turned out great! Who needs cookies when I have this smoothie? Drink up!
The funny thing is, no one wanted to drink this Oatmeal Raisin Cookie Smoothie but me. Everyone said that it looked like puke.
I don’t know, I don’t see it. But that just means more for me, right?
This recipe only uses 5 ingredients, and it is ready in under 5 minutes.
So there is really no excuse NOT to make it. This will definitely be going on repeat in my house!!

It sounds awesome! Oats and raisins in a smoothie!
I don't mind to have this everyday! Looks creamy and sounds so healthy too!
I love everything with bananas! Bananas with oats, raisins and cinnamon sounds so delicious, especially in a smoothie! Yum!
Oatmeal Raisin cookies seem like a fall kind of cookie – not summery at least!
I haven't tried oats in my smoothie though, but I bet that's super delish with the raw cashew milk! Have a great weekend!
Raisins in a BLENDER? That's weird! Is it chunky or smooth?
My blender is fantastic, it was very smooth and creamy. But I think if your blender can blend up ice cubes without making it chunky, it will definitely work with raisins!
New and different , bring them on .
Simple and yum! I love it.
Smoothie looks rich and creamy !
