Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks
- 1 frozen banana, peeled prior to freezing
- 1/4 cup frozen coconut chunks, or 3-4 tbsp shredded coconut
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 1/2 cup coconut milk
Instructions
- Add Ingredients: Add all ingredients—frozen pineapple chunks, frozen banana, frozen coconut chunks or shredded coconut, maple syrup, lemon juice, and coconut milk—into a high-powered blender to prepare for blending.
- Blend: Blend the ingredients until smooth and creamy. Start with the smallest amount of liquid to help the blades move, then add more coconut milk only if needed to achieve your desired consistency. A thinner smoothie can be achieved with more liquid, whereas less liquid will make a thicker, spoonable smoothie bowl.
- Serve and Top: Transfer the blended smoothie to a bowl and garnish with your favorite toppings like granola, coconut flakes, fresh pineapple pieces, and sliced banana for added texture and flavor.
Notes
- Use a high-powered blender for the creamiest texture.
- Adjust the amount of coconut milk based on your preferred smoothie thickness.
- Feel free to substitute maple syrup with honey or agave syrup if preferred.
- Toppings are optional but add great texture and nutritional value.
- Make sure to freeze the banana peeled for easier blending and better texture.
