Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup strawberries, hulled
- 1 apple, cored and chopped
- 1 ripe banana
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
Instructions
- Begin by preparing your ingredients. Hull the strawberries by removing the green leafy tops and any remaining stems. Rinse them under cold water to clean, then set aside.
- Take the apple, core it to remove the seeds, and chop it into small, manageable pieces. You can leave the skin on for added nutrients and texture, or peel it if you prefer a smoother consistency.
- Peel the ripe banana and break it into chunks. This will make it easier for the blender to mix all the ingredients smoothly.
- In a blender, combine the hulled strawberries, chopped apple, banana chunks, and almond milk. If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, add the tablespoon of honey at this stage.
- Secure the lid on the blender and blend the mixture on high speed until it is smooth and creamy. This should take about 30-60 seconds, depending on the power of your blender.
- Once blended, check the consistency of the smoothie. If it’s too thick for your liking, you can add a little more almond milk and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.
- Pour the smoothie into two glasses. You can garnish with a few extra strawberry slices or a sprinkle of granola on top for added texture and presentation, if desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy Strawberry Apple Banana Smoothie!
Tips
- Use ripe, sweet fruits for the best natural sweetness and smoothest texture
