☕ Coffee Banana Smoothie Recipe
This recipe makes one large serving. For the best texture, use a frozen banana to get that thick, creamy consistency shown in your image.
Ingredients
1 Frozen Banana: Peeled and sliced before freezing.
1/2 cup Cold Brew or Chilled Coffee: Strong coffee works best.
1/2 cup Milk of choice: (Dairy, Almond, or Oat milk all work great).
1/4 cup Greek Yogurt: Adds creaminess and a boost of protein.
1 tsp Honey or Maple Syrup: Optional, depending on how ripe your banana is.
1/4 tsp Ground Cinnamon: For that warm flavor profile seen in the photo.
A handful of ice: If you want it extra frosty.
Instructions
Combine: Place the frozen banana, chilled coffee, milk, yogurt, and cinnamon into a high-speed blender.
Blend: Start on a low setting and increase to high until the mixture is completely smooth and frothy.
Taste Test: Give it a quick sip. If you want it sweeter, add your honey or maple syrup and pulse again.
Garnish: Pour into a tall glass. Top with fresh banana slices and a light dusting of cinnamon, just like the picture!
💡 Pro-Tips for the Best Results
The Coffee: If you don’t have cold brew, you can use 1 teaspoon of instant coffee powder dissolved in a little bit of warm water instead.
Add-ins: Feel free to toss in a tablespoon of almond butter or a scoop of chocolate protein powder if you want to turn this into a full meal replacement.
