Ingredients
Smoothie Ingredients
- 1 Banana (frozen)
- 2 Medjool Dates (pitted)
- 3 Tablespoons Unsweetened Shredded Coconut
- 1/2 Cup Vanilla Greek Yogurt (or substitute a dairy-free yogurt)
- 1/2 Teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1 Cup Almond Milk
Instructions
- Blend: Add all of your ingredients—frozen banana, pitted Medjool dates, unsweetened shredded coconut, vanilla Greek yogurt, cinnamon, and almond milk—into a blender. Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
- Scrape: If the ingredients are not blending evenly, pause the blender, remove the lid, and use a spatula to scrape down the sides to incorporate any stuck bits back into the blend.
- Serve: Pour the smoothie into a glass and serve immediately. This recipe yields one large smoothie or two smaller servings.
Notes
- For a dairy-free version, substitute the vanilla Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt alternative.
- Using frozen banana helps achieve a creamy, cold consistency without adding ice.
- Adjust the thickness by adding more or less almond milk as preferred.
- This smoothie is best consumed fresh but can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours; stir before drinking.
- Medjool dates provide natural sweetness; you can adjust the quantity based on your desired sweetness level.
