Instructions

  1. Gather your ingredients. Make sure your banana is frozen for the best creamy texture.

  10. Lastly, add about 1/2 cup of ice cubes.
  11. Blend everything on high for 30-45 seconds until smooth and creamy.
  12. Check the consistency; adjust with more milk if too thick.
  13. Pour the smoothie into a glass or bowl and enjoy immediately.

Notes

Pair with whole-grain toast topped with avocado or a handful of nuts for a more substantial breakfast. Store leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
