Coffee Smoothie – A healthy protein-packed smoothie filled with the flavors of coffee and vanilla.

Vanilla latte smoothie with black and white straws.Hello there! Today I’m bringing you a recipe for a protein-packed smoothie that tastes like a vanilla latte (yum!). And since it’s the end of the month I’m also sharing some links for my Around My Table month end feature.

Coffee Smoothie

This smoothie is my new favorite! It is thick and creamy and filled with the flavors of coffee and vanilla.

The coffee flavor comes from espresso powder and coffee yogurt. The vanilla flavor comes from vanilla almond milk, vanilla protein powder, and a touch of vanilla extract.

This coffee smoothie provides just the right amount of caffeine to get you going in the morning or to get you through your afternoon slump. Plus, the protein will keep you full and satisfied for hours.

Now, grab yourself a drink (or a smoothie!) and pull up a chair. Let’s check out some scrumptious links from around the web:

  • Today totally calls for Leap Year Cocktail Slushies! Let’s do it.
  • In case you missed it → The BEST news ever.
  • Are you a peanut butter fan? This roundup of peanut butter recipes will have your drooling.
  • We’ve been on a breakfast-for-dinner kick lately. Last week we had a Spinach and Ricotta Frittata with Scalloped Tomatoes. SO tasty.
  • This Sausage Kale French Bread Pizza is on our menu this week. All that kale cancels out the calories from the sausage and cheese, right? 😉
  • Just a couple weeks until St. Patrick’s Day! Try my Guinness Brownies with Irish Cream Frosting.
  • This Elderberry Soda is full of antioxidants and immunity boosters. It seems like someone in our house is always sick lately. I can’t wait to try it.
  • Not food related, but this made me totally happy.

    Yummy! I love the idea of using coffee flavored yogurt in a smoothie – especially when it’s added into a smoothie with even more coffee. I need to make this some morning very soon!

    Can you use plain protein powder? And is there a way to not use yogurt? Can I use coffee almond milk. And ice and protein powder, vanilla a bit of honey? Or would that be gross??

      I like the thickness the yogurt adds, but you can definitely leave it out. You can make the changes you suggested, just adjust it to suit your taste. Enjoy!

      Hi, Dawn. I just updated the recipe card with full nutrition facts (down at the bottom). The nutrition information does NOT include additional sweetener as that would be to taste. Enjoy!

    Can you actually taste the banana in this recipe or is it just to make it creamier?

      I find that the coffee flavor overpowers it. You can leave it and just add more ice if you’d prefer.

    Excellent smoothie. It tasted exactly like a vanilla latte, with just a small hint of banana. I followed the exact recipe, with no changes. Chobani Coffee definitely yogurt makes a difference in the recipe. Really good and highly recommended. Thanks again.
