Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 pieces Bananas Use ripe, spotty bananas for natural sweetness.
  • 1 cup Almond milk Fewer calories than dairy, light flavor.
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt Adds protein for fullness and creamy texture.
Optional Add-ins
  • 1 tablespoon Flax seeds For fiber and omega-3 fatty acids.
  • 1 scoop Peanut butter For extra creaminess and a dessert-like flavor.
  • 1 handful Spinach Sneaks in veggies without altering the taste.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Peel and slice the bananas into thick coins.
  2. Lay the banana slices on a baking sheet and freeze for a couple of hours until solid.
Blending
  1. In a blender, add the almond milk first, followed by the frozen banana slices, Greek yogurt, and any optional add-ins.
  2. Blend on high until smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes.
Serving
  1. Pour the smoothie into a glass or bowl and enjoy. Top with extra banana slices or homemade peanut butter cookie crumbles if desired.

Notes

For best results, use frozen bananas for a creamy texture. Don't hesitate to customize with other fruits or flavors! Blend longer for a smoother consistency.
