Ingredients
Scale
- 1 frozen banana 🍌
- 1 cup fresh spinach 🍃
- 1 tsp high-quality matcha powder 🍵
- 1/2 cup almond milk (or any plant-based milk) 🌱
- 1 tbsp chia seeds ✨
- 1/4 cup coconut flakes 🥥
- 1 tbsp almond butter (optional) 🌰
- Fresh berries (for topping) 🍓
- 1 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional) 🍯
Instructions
- In a high-speed blender, combine the frozen banana, fresh spinach, and matcha powder. Blend until smooth.
- Pour in the almond milk to help the mixture blend smoothly. If you prefer a thicker consistency, add less milk. For extra creaminess, include a spoonful of almond butter. Blend until everything is well combined and velvety.
- Transfer the smoothie mixture into a bowl. The thick texture should hold its shape, making it perfect for toppings. If the mixture is too runny, add a few ice cubes and blend again.
- Sprinkle coconut flakes, chia seeds, fresh berries, and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness.
Notes
- Use high-quality matcha powder for the best flavor and health benefits.
- Freeze ripe bananas in advance for a creamier texture.
- Adjust sweetness with honey, maple syrup, or dates.
- Experiment with toppings like granola, nuts, or cacao nibs.
