Whip up a thick, creamy and nutritious Peaches and Cream Protein Smoothie in just minutes! With only about 200 calories in each giant serving, it’s a healthy, clean, and satisfying breakfast or snack for summer’s hottest days!
It’s officially peach season in Virginia (in case you haven’t noticed!), so I’m taking full advantage — at breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert!
At this time of year, I start almost every single day with a big cold smoothie! It cools me off, it fills me up, and it keeps me going all morning long thanks to plenty of protein! Since this is a low-calorie smoothie on its own, I like to add some granola to the top and eat it with a spoon (I swear, it tastes almost like Peach Crisp dessert!), or serve a piece of toast with peanut butter on the side.
Need a light snack on the run? It’s good for that too…

Peaches and Cream Protein Smoothie
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk or other preferred milk
- 1 ½ cups frozen peaches
- 1 scoop vanilla-flavored protein powder*
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
- 1-2 cups ice depending on how thick you like your smoothie
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a blender and puree until smooth.
Notes
- *I used Quest Nutrition brand, which has 100 calories per scoop. If you are making this recipe for children and you would rather not use protein powder, you can substitute with about ¾ cup yogurt (peach yogurt would be good, or use vanilla or plain Greek yogurt for additional protein.
- If your yogurt is not sweet, you will probably want to add some honey or other sweetener to the mix because the protein powder adds sweetness otherwise).

Blair, iI love the flavor of this smoothie! I’ve been obsessed with peaches lately, so this is just calling my name. And I love how thick and packed with protein this is. What a perfect summer drink to sip on!
Thank you, Gayle!! I can’t get enough summer fruit right now either. Have to take advantage while it’s here! 🙂
Peach smoothies are one of my favorites! With fresh peaches, the flavor is phenomenal! Have to try this version 🙂
Definitely try this, Megan! You can just freeze your fresh peaches overnight — the frozen fruit makes the shake so thick and delicious!
I’ve never actually used peaches in a smoothie before so I really need to remember this and try using peaches in a smoothie this summer! Yum!
Oh, definitely try it, Kristy! You will LOVE the smoothie!
Oh yum, now this is a smoothie I’ve never tried before and it looks so delicious!
Thanks, Emily!
Oh man, this sounds so yummy! It doesn’t matter what the weather is like outside, my 3-year-old loves to start his day with a smoothie, and I know this one will be a huge hit. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, Savannah!
Sounds so good!
But wondering how you calculated the calories… if the protein powder is 100 and the smoothie is 130, that means both the peaches and almond milk are 30 calories combined? Pretty sure that’s not quite right!
You’re right, Tara. That doesn’t sound right! The nutrition info is automatically calculated by the recipe card software, so I don’t necessarily think it’s ever too exact. There are just too many variables — like which type of protein powder you use and which type of almond milk you use. If you’re counting calories or watching macros, etc., it’s definitely best to use your favorite trusted nutrition calculator with your specific ingredients. The auto-generated version is just going to be a ballpark estimate. Hope that helps!
