Healthy Strawberry Shortcake Milkshake
This Healthy Strawberry Shortcake Milkshake is thick, rich, creamy, sweet and packed with fresh strawberry flavor… you’d never know it’s totally guilt-free! Secretly gluten free, sugar free, low fat, low calorie and high protein, this milkshake is healthy enough for breakfast but is sweet and decadent enough to be served as a dessert!
Dessert in a smoothie? Why not?
The juicy strawberries add natural sweetness, the oat flour adds that classic “baked good” flavor, the yogurt adds a similar “whipped cream” oomph along with a creamy texture, and the psyllium makes it thick like a shake.
No need for ice cream. No need for syrups. No need for all the added sugar!
Seriously, one sip and you’ll be like, “NO WAY THIS IS HEALTHY!”
*chug, chug, chug*

This looks so incredibly yummy, Jessica!!! My sons would love this, so would I actually. Thanks!
it looks yummy!
Great! I just now ordered Psyllium Husk Powder to make the Homemade Metamucil to make this milkshake! And, I just bought some fresh blueberries on Monday. I will try those also if I get my Metamucil ingredient back in time. (But I have fallen in love with strawberry shortcake- wow, I do love it)!
Thank you very much

Ooo YAY!! I love adding the psyllium mix to smoothies… it makes it soooo thick and you don’t need to add any ice cream or stick with super small servings, haha 🙂
Now that you mention it, I’m sure this recipe would be just as good with blueberries! I’m definitely going to give that a shot.
Thanks 😀

Yum… if this is anything like your cherry milkshake i’m all in!
Emily-
Oh it’s just as delicious as the Cherry Milkshake. TRUST ME! 😀
(aka I chugged both shakes like I was in a Hot Dog Eating, I mean, Milkshake Drinking Contest)

Oh man I just made this to take for my breakfast tomorrow and I had a little taste… It was so hard not to just drink the whole thing right then and there!! Seriously amazing!
YAY I’m so glad you made the milkshake!! I made this recipe a few times the night before too. When I wake up I just want food immediately, I don’t have the patience to whip out a blender haha 🙂
Hope you had an amazing morning!

I made this delicious milkshake! I used Triple 0 Greek Strawberry Yogurt instead of the original flavor and it was so. so. tasty. I also used frozen strawberries instead of fresh to make it thicker, due to my absence of Metamucil. It felt like soft-serve strawberry ice cream! This is my second time making it and NOT my last!
Thank you, I love it!
