Classic strawberry banana smoothies are the BEST… especially when it comes to these hot summer months.

It’s great first thing in the morning for a breakfast on-the-go. Or as a snack after a good workout. There is just nothing quite as refreshing as blended up fresh fruit with a touch of yogurt and milk.

INGREDIENTS

Making smoothies at home is super simple and normally only requires a few basic ingredients. Common choices include fruitmilk or juice, and a sweetener, if needed.

The ingredients we will be using include:

  • Strawberries – Frozen is the best type to use since it will help chill and thicken the drink. However, you can also freeze fresh strawberries by following the instructions below.
  • Bananas – If using frozen strawberries, it’s best if you use room temperature bananas. Their softer texture will enable the smoothie to blend up more easily when mixed with frozen strawberries.
  • Yogurt – Plain or vanilla yogurt is recommended for this recipe. If you are vegan or avoid dairy, opt for a coconut milk or almond milk yogurt alternative.
  • Milk – Almond milk, cashew milk, coconut milk, oat milk, and soy milk will all work equally as well in this recipe.
  • Honey – If you want to add a touch of sweetness, honey, agave nectar, or pure maple syrup work great.  However, if your strawberries are already pretty sweet, you may not need this!

HOW TO MAKE

These are the few simple steps for how to make a strawberry banana smoothie at home:

  1. Add all ingredients to a blender.Either a high-speed traditional or personal-sized blender will work. Start with the banana, then add the strawberries, yogurt, and honey.
  2. Blend ingredients for 1-2 minutes.Watch for a completely smooth consistency. Add additional milk as needed.
  3. Serve immediately and enjoy!Garnish with some fresh fruit or whipped cream for an extra special touch

STRAWBERRY BANANA SMOOTHIE INGREDIENTS 

 There are few different ways you can make a delicious and healthy creamy strawberry banana smoothie. The main ingredients of course are strawberries and bananas. I keep a big bag of frozen strawberries in the freezer. Frozen fruit is a great way to get those great vitamins in during the off season. 

  • With yogurt: I prefer plain dairy free Greek style yogurt like Kite Hill so this smoothie isn’t overly sweet. My daughter prefers vanilla yogurt. Yogurt has the added benefit of probiotics. 
  • Without yogurt:  If you don’t like yogurt, you can use unsweetened almond milk. Use just enough to turn the blender. 

HOW TO MAKE A STRAWBERRY BANANA SMOOTHIE

I like really thick smoothies, so I add just enough liquid to turn the blades. A little yogurt or almond milk, or a whole peeled orange act as liquids to thin smoothies. We add all the ingredients and turn on the blender. Add more liquid if needed, and add a handful of ice. 

HOW TO ADD MORE NUTRITION TO YOUR STRAWBERRY BANANA SMOOTHIE

This simple strawberry banana smoothie is great as-is, but I like to add some nutrition boosters sometimes too. 

  • I add a big handful of baby spinach for a green strawberry banana smoothie. You can’t taste the spinach, so it’s an easy way to get your greens in. 
  • I often add about 1/4 cup of oats to my daughter’s smoothie to make it more substantial. 
  • Add a tablespoon of flax or chia seeds for more protein and Omega-3s. 
  • Add a scoop of unflavored protein powder. I find vanilla is too sweet for my taste here.
