Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup frozen strawberries (160g)
  • 1 medium frozen banana, sliced
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (about 25g)
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (120g), plain or vanilla
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (120ml)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Optional toppings: sliced fresh strawberries, banana slices, granola, shredded coconut, or nuts

Instructions

  1. Slice a ripe banana and freeze it for at least 2 hours or overnight. Measure out 1 cup of frozen strawberries.
  2. Measure 1/2 cup Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk, 1 scoop vanilla protein powder, 1 teaspoon chia seeds, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract. Keep honey or maple syrup handy if you want extra sweetness.
  3. Add the frozen banana, frozen strawberries, protein powder, Greek yogurt, almond milk, chia seeds, and vanilla extract to a high-speed blender. Blend on high until smooth and creamy. If too thick, add a splash more almond milk; if too thin, add more frozen fruit.
  4. Taste and adjust sweetness by blending in 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup if desired.
  5. Pour the smoothie into a bowl and top with fresh strawberry slices, banana rounds, granola, shredded coconut, or nuts.
  6. Serve immediately for the best texture and temperature.

Notes

Use frozen fruit for the best thick and creamy texture. Pulse blender a few times before blending at high speed to avoid motor strain. Adjust liquid amount to achieve desired thickness. Prepare frozen fruit in advance for best results. For vegan option, swap Greek yogurt with coconut or almond yogurt and use plant-based protein powder. Store leftovers in airtight container in refrigerator up to 24 hours; stir and add almond milk before serving. Avoid freezing prepared smoothie bowl.
