  • Total Time: 15 mins
  • Yield: 1-2 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1½ frozen bananas
  • 1 tsp high-quality matcha powder (ceremonial-grade recommended)
  • ½ cup coconut milk (full-fat for creaminess)
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt or plant-based alternative (e.g., coconut yogurt)
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds
  • Ice cubes (if needed for thickness)
  • 2 tbsp toasted coconut flakes
  • Fresh fruit (banana slices, berries, kiwi)
  • Chia seeds or hemp hearts
  • Drizzle of honey or nut butter (almond butter works well)
  • Mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. Peel and slice bananas, then freeze them for at least 4 hours or overnight. Measure out all ingredients before starting.
  2. In a high-powered blender, combine frozen bananas, matcha powder, coconut milk, yogurt, honey (if using), vanilla extract, and chia seeds. Blend on low speed, gradually increasing to high, until smooth and thick (1-2 minutes). Add a splash of coconut milk or ice cubes if needed to adjust consistency.
  3. Toast coconut flakes in a dry skillet over medium heat for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly until golden brown and fragrant. Remove immediately and transfer to a cool plate.
  4. Pour the thick matcha smoothie into a wide, shallow bowl. Top with toasted coconut flakes, fresh fruit, chia seeds or hemp hearts, and a drizzle of honey or nut butter. Garnish with mint leaves and serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Use ceremonial-grade matcha for the best flavor and vibrant color.
  • Freeze banana slices in a single layer on a baking sheet before transferring to a container to prevent clumping.
  • If your blender struggles, blend liquid ingredients first, then add frozen banana chunks gradually.
  • Toast coconut flakes just before serving for maximum freshness and crunch.
  • Store leftover smoothie base in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours; reblend with ice cubes if needed.
