Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup frozen wild blueberries
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 teaspoon matcha green tea powder
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional)
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
Optional Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (optional for creaminess)
Instructions
- Combine ingredients: Add the frozen wild blueberries, frozen banana, matcha powder, vanilla extract, maple syrup (if using), and almond milk to a high-speed blender.
- Blend smooth: Blend until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated.
- Add optional ingredients: If desired, add chia seeds and Greek yogurt to the blender.
- Final blend: Blend again until the chia seeds and Greek yogurt are fully mixed in for extra creaminess and nutrition.
- Adjust taste and serve: Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness if needed by adding more maple syrup or another sweetener, then pour into a glass and serve immediately.
Notes
- For a thicker smoothie, reduce the amount of almond milk slightly or increase the amount of frozen banana.
- You can substitute maple syrup with honey or omit it altogether for a lower-sugar option.
- To keep the smoothie vegan, use a dairy-free yogurt alternative instead of Greek yogurt.
