Equipment

  • Blender

Ingredients

  • 2 bananas
  • 1 cup plain milk or almond milk
  • 1 cup plain greek yogurt

Instructions

  • Peel and slice the bananas. For a thicker, creamier smoothie, you can freeze the slices for 2–3 hours or until solid.
  • Add the banana (fresh or frozen) to a blender.
  • Pour in your milk of choice and add yogurt if using.
  • Blend until smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides if needed.
  • Serve immediately while fresh and cold.

Notes

  • For a thicker and creamier smoothie, use frozen banana slices instead of fresh.
  • If using fresh bananas, add a few ice cubes to chill and slightly thicken the smoothie.
  • Adjust the amount of milk to control consistency—less for thick, more for a lighter drink.
  • Taste before adding any sweetener, as ripe bananas are often naturally sweet enough.
  • Blend a little longer than expected for a smoother, more refined texture.
  • This smoothie is best enjoyed immediately for the freshest flavor and texture.
