  • Total Time: 5 minutes
  • Yield: 1 serving 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh pineapple, chopped
  • 1 ripe banana, peeled and sliced
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or plant-based alternative
  • 1 cup coconut water or almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1/2 cup ice cubes

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Ingredients: Peel and chop the ripe banana and fresh pineapple into smaller pieces to ensure smooth blending and consistent texture.
  2. Add Liquid Base: Pour coconut water or almond milk into your blender first to help the blades move smoothly when blending.
  3. Blend the Ingredients: Add chopped pineapple, banana, Greek yogurt, and optional sweetener to the blender and pulse on high until creamy and smooth.
  4. Adjust Consistency: If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more liquid and blend again; if too thin, add ice or frozen fruit to thicken.
  5. Serve Immediately: Pour the smoothie into a glass and enjoy fresh for maximum flavor and nutrient retention.

Notes

  • Use fully ripe bananas and sweet pineapples for the best natural sweetness and flavor.
  • Freeze banana slices and pineapple chunks ahead of time for a naturally chilled smoothie without diluting the flavor.
  • Adjust sweetness gradually by starting with less honey or maple syrup and adding more if needed.
  • Add liquid first, then fruits, followed by yogurt to ensure smooth blending without chunks.
  • Consume immediately for the best texture and nutritional benefits.
