Ingredients

  • 1 large banana, fresh or frozen slices
  • ½ cup plant-based milk (I used almond milk)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup, optional

Instructions

  • In a high-speed blender, combine all ingredients and blend until smooth.

Notes

  • To make a thicker smoothie, add less milk (⅓ cup to ¼ cup).
  • Use frozen banana slices to make the smoothie creamier and more refreshing.
  • Add mango, pineapple or berries for extra fruity flavour.
  • Add hemp seeds, chia seeds or a scoop of your favourite protein powder for extra protein.
  • For an ice cold smoothie, add a handful of ice or frozen fruits.
  • Add a tablespoon of nut butter for a creamier smoothie.
