My keto blueberry smoothie recipe is creamy and bursting with fresh blueberry flavor! It’s made with just 3 ingredients and only 3 grams of net carbs.

I love starting my mornings with a big, bright smoothie. When I want something low in sugar but still satisfying, blueberries are always my first choice.

This keto blueberry smoothie is creamy, refreshing, and packed with blueberry flavor. It has the texture of a milkshake, but it is made with wholesome ingredients and comes together in seconds. It’s one of those quick breakfasts I never get tired of making. In fact, I always keep a bag of frozen blueberries in my freezer specifically for it. 

Arman’s tips before starting

Arman Liew

Use frozen blueberries. I tested this smoothie with fresh and frozen berries, and frozen blueberries won every time. They create a thicker, creamier texture without needing ice.

Start with less liquid. You can always add more milk, but you (sadly) can’t take it away. I start with the minimum amount and add more until the smoothie reaches my preferred consistency.

Serve immediately. Like most smoothies, this one tastes best straight from the blender while it’s thick and frosty. 

Key Ingredients

Find the printable recipe with measurements in the recipe card below.

  • Blueberries. I strongly recommend frozen blueberries, not fresh. Fresh blueberries yield a thin, watery smoothie, and sometimes the skins gel up.
  • Milk. I used unsweetened coconut milk, but any low-carb milk, like almond or soy milk, works. 
  • Almond butter. Adds extra staying power and a richer flavor. Peanut butter or cashew butter can also be substituted, though my partner finds the peanut butter tends to overpower the blueberry flavor.

Recipe variations

Make it creamier. Swap some of the milk with full-fat Greek yogurt or sugar-free condensed milk.

Use more berries. I sometimes add strawberries and raspberries to make a triple berry smoothie. 

Add superfoods. collagen powder, MCT coconut oil, or chia seeds.

Add protein. Use 1-2 scoops of your favorite protein powder. 

How to make keto blueberry smoothies

Step 1- Blend. Add all of the ingredients to a high-speed blender and blend until thick and creamy.

Step 2- Serve. Pour into two glasses and serve immediately.
