10 Frozen Fruit Smoothies that Taste Like Dessert!

I know a lot of people make and drink smoothies for breakfast, but at our house smoothies are actually more of a dessert. Especially in the summertime when you want a nice cold dessert to end the hot day!

Over the past few summers we have worked and experimented with all kinds of different Dessert Smoothies. Now I perfer my dessert to at least have some fruit in them so it;s not totally over the top, but frozen fruit can be a little expensive.

I also realized that fruit is one of those items that people tend to throw out because it went bad before they could use it. Well stop that and start freezing that fruit at home. Thankfully it is super easy to just wash the fruit, slice it if needed like a banana, then lay it out on a parchment paper covered sheet pan. Pop the pan in the freezer for a few hours and then move your frozen fruit to a bag!

Seriously it is so simple and can turn that potential food waste into a yummy smoothie later on!

Frozen Fruit Smoothie Recipes

1. Cherry Cheesecake Smoothie

This is delicious and decadent and can totally be switched up to so many different frozen fruits!

2. Peach Cobbler Smoothie

Every year we end up with a ton of peaches (we do live in the peach state) so this is definitely a favorite at our house!

3. Carrot Cake Smoothie

I absolutely adore carrot cake and one of the reasons is because it is sweet but not over the top sweet! This smoothie is perfect for that and if you wanted to you can totally add a little cream cheese to mimic the frosting too!

4. Lemn Bar Smoothie

My son loves sour, and this is one of his favorites! You can totally switch this up and use lime or mango too!

5. Black Forest Smoothie

This is another one that is always requested! We have even used melted chocolate instead of cocoa powder as well!

6. Snickerdoodle Shake

This one is something I more likely to have for breakfast, but you can actually turn this into more of a milkshake too by adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream!

7. Pina Colada Smoothie

This is one of those mocktails that is just unbelievably good. Instantly transport your mind to a tropical place without leaving your kitchen!

8. Apple Crisp Smoothie

Did you know you can freeze apples? Yup! I soak them in a little lemon juice and sprite first, then drain and freeze. They don’t turn brown and they keep all the yummy flavor!

9. Creamsicle Smoothie

I grew up in Florida and I love the creamy orange combo. So, this smoothie is a great way to get that flavor!

10. Chunky Monkey Smoothie

This is totally a favorite of mine and for a few seconds I can pretend it is totally a healthy treat too, right? Well healthier than eating a whole pint of ice cream, right?
