Description

A creamy, energizing smoothie made with ripe bananas, matcha powder, and your choice of milk. Naturally sweet and packed with antioxidants, this Banana Matcha Smoothie is perfect for a refreshing breakfast or snack.


Ingredients

2 ripe bananas

12 teaspoons matcha powder

1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)

Optional: 1 tablespoon spinach

Optional: 1 tablespoon chia seeds

Optional: 1 scoop protein powder


Instructions

  1. Peel the bananas and place them in a blender.
  2. Add 1–2 teaspoons of matcha powder, adjusting to taste.
  3. Pour in 1 cup of milk (dairy or plant-based).
  4. Optionally, add chia seeds, spinach, or protein powder for extra nutrition.
  5. Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy. Add more liquid if needed for consistency.
  6. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Notes

  • Use frozen bananas for a creamier, colder texture.
  • For a vegan-friendly option, use non-dairy milk and skip honey.
  • Best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Shake or stir before drinking.
  • Optional add-ins like ginger, turmeric, or citrus can boost immunity.
  • Adding protein powder makes it a great post-workout snack.
