Description
This pineapple banana smoothie is a delicious tropical drink that’s creamy, naturally sweet, and packed with nutrients. Made with fresh pineapple, ripe banana, and a light liquid base, this smoothie is perfect for breakfast, a post-workout snack, or a refreshing treat.
Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh pineapple chunks (or frozen)
- 1 ripe banana, peeled
- 1 cup coconut milk, almond milk, or pineapple juice
- ½ cup Greek yogurt (optional for extra creaminess)
- ½ cup ice cubes (adjust based on thickness preference)
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional for added sweetness)
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds or flaxseeds (optional for extra fiber)
Instructions
1️⃣ Add liquid first – Pour coconut milk, almond milk, or pineapple juice into the blender.
2️⃣ Add fruits and extras – Toss in the pineapple chunks, banana, and optional ingredients like yogurt or chia seeds.
3️⃣ Blend until smooth – Start on low speed and increase to high for a creamy, lump-free consistency.
4️⃣ Adjust consistency – If too thick, add more liquid; if too thin, add a few ice cubes and blend again.
5️⃣ Serve immediately – Pour into a glass, garnish with a pineapple slice, and enjoy!
Notes
✔ For a dairy-free smoothie, omit Greek yogurt and use almond or coconut milk.
✔ For a thicker smoothie, use frozen banana instead of fresh.
✔ For a protein boost, add 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder.
✔ For a low-sugar version, use unsweetened milk and skip the honey.
