Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup (150g) frozen pineapple chunks
- 1/2 cup (120ml) creamy coconut milk (full-fat canned preferred)
- 1 medium frozen banana, sliced
- 1/2 cup (120g) plain Greek yogurt (or coconut yogurt for dairy-free)
- 1 tablespoon (15ml) honey or maple syrup, to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
- Optional toppings: toasted shredded coconut, chia seeds or flaxseeds, fresh pineapple slices or mango chunks, granola, fresh mint leaves
Instructions
- Prepare your fruit: slice and freeze banana if not already frozen. Use frozen pineapple chunks straight from the bag.
- Add frozen pineapple, frozen banana slices, coconut milk, Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and lime juice into a high-speed blender. Put liquids in first to help blending.
- Blend starting on low speed, gradually increasing to high. Blend for 1-2 minutes, scraping down sides with a spatula as needed until thick and creamy.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or lime juice if needed, blending briefly again if you add anything.
- Pour smoothie into a wide bowl and top with toasted shredded coconut, chia seeds, fresh pineapple slices, granola, and mint leaves as desired.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the best creamy texture and vibrant flavor.
Notes
Use frozen fruit to ensure thickness; full-fat canned coconut milk adds richness but carton coconut milk can be used for a lighter option. Toast shredded coconut in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes for extra flavor. Adjust sweetness carefully to avoid overpowering natural fruit flavors. Best served immediately for optimal texture. Leftovers can be refrigerated up to 24 hours; stir in coconut milk before eating.
