Ingredients
  

Main
  • 1 frozen banana peeled and sliced
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt or vanilla Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons almond butter or peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup frozen blueberries or mixed berries
  • 1 teaspoon raw honey or maple syrup optional
  • 1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder optional but recommended
  • Handful of ice cubes optional, for extra thickness

Equipment

  • High-powered blender
  • Tall drinking glass
  • Measuring cups
  • Measuring spoons

Method
 

  1. Peel your banana and slice it into half-inch coins, then freeze it overnight or at least 4 hours in advance.
  2. Pour the almond milk into your blender first, followed by the Greek yogurt.
  3. Add the almond butter directly into the blender with the milk and yogurt.
  4. Drop in your frozen banana slices and blend on low speed for about 10 seconds to break them down slightly.
  5. Add your frozen blueberries or mixed berries to the blender and continue blending.
  6. Sprinkle in your protein powder and honey if you're using them, then blend for another 5 to 10 seconds.
  7. Increase your blender speed to medium-high and blend for 30 to 45 seconds until the smoothie reaches a thick, creamy consistency.
  8. If your smoothie is too thick, add a splash more milk and blend for 5 seconds. If it's too thin, add a handful of ice cubes or another frozen banana slice and blend again.
  9. Pour your smoothie into a tall glass and serve immediately while it's perfectly cold and thick.

Notes

Use truly ripe bananas with brown spots before freezing for maximum sweetness. Frozen fruit is essential for the signature thick, milkshake-like texture. Drink immediately for best texture and flavor. For meal prep, create freezer bags with frozen banana, berries, nut butter, and protein powder, then add milk and yogurt when ready to blend.
