# Ingredients:
→ Smoothie Base
01 -
1 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
02 -
1/2 cup 2% milk
03 -
1 medium banana, frozen
04 -
1 teaspoon matcha powder
→ Optional Garnish
05 -
Fresh banana slices
06 -
Sprinkle of matcha powder
# Instructions:
01 -
Place all ingredients into your blender in the order recommended by your blender manufacturer. For most blenders, add liquids first (yogurt and milk), then the matcha powder, and finally the frozen banana.
02 -
Blend on high speed for about 1 minute until the mixture is completely smooth and no matcha powder lumps remain. Use the smoothie setting if your blender has one.
03 -
Pour into a glass and garnish with fresh banana slices and a light sprinkle of matcha powder if desired. Serve immediately for best flavor and consistency.
# Notes:
01 -
Use only ripe bananas for this smoothie - green bananas will make it taste too bitter.
02 -
To freeze bananas for future smoothies, slice them into chunks before freezing for easier blending.
03 -
Adjust consistency by adding more milk to thin it out or more yogurt to make it thicker.
04 -
For best results, drink immediately after blending.
