Description
This Strawberry Banana Smoothie is creamy, refreshing, and naturally sweet. Made with just a handful of wholesome ingredients, it’s perfect for breakfast, post-workout fuel, or a quick snack.
Ingredients
1 ½ cups strawberries (fresh or frozen)
1 ripe banana, peeled
1 cup milk of choice (dairy, almond, oat, or coconut)
½ cup yogurt (Greek or regular, optional for creaminess)
1–2 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional, if you like it sweeter)
A handful of ice cubes (optional, for extra chill if using fresh fruit)
Instructions
Wash and hull strawberries if using fresh. Peel and slice banana into chunks.
Add milk, strawberries, banana, and yogurt (if using) to a blender.
Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy, about 30–60 seconds.
Taste and adjust sweetness—add honey or maple syrup if desired, then blend again briefly.
Pour into glasses and serve immediately.
Notes
For a thicker smoothie, use frozen strawberries or a banana and reduce the liquid slightly.
For a thinner smoothie, add more milk until you reach your preferred consistency.
Boost it: Add protein powder, chia seeds, flaxseeds, or oats for extra nutrition.
Make-ahead: Freeze bananas and strawberries in portions so you can blend a smoothie in minutes.
