Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1 ripe banana
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon almond butter
- 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- Ice cubes (optional, if using fresh blueberries)
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients—measure blueberries, banana, almond milk, almond butter, and optional sweeteners.
- Pour almond milk into the blender first, followed by almond butter to prevent sticking.
- Add blueberries and banana for natural sweetness and creaminess.
- Blend on high speed until smooth. Adjust thickness with extra almond milk if needed.
- For extra sweetness, drizzle in honey or maple syrup and blend again.
- Pour into a glass, garnish with almond slices or extra blueberries, and enjoy!
Notes
- For a thicker smoothie, use frozen blueberries instead of ice.
- Boost protein by adding a scoop of vanilla or unflavored protein powder.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
- Customize with cocoa powder, spinach, or oats for variations.
