Ingredients
Base Ingredients
- 1 cup Greek yogurt (non-fat, plain)
- 1/2 cup milk (2%)
Flavor and Sweetener
- 1 teaspoon matcha powder
- 1 medium banana, frozen
Instructions
- Add Ingredients to Blender: Add Greek yogurt, milk, matcha powder, and frozen banana to the blender. Follow your blender manufacturer’s instructions for the order of adding ingredients, typically liquids first, then powders, and solids last.
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend the mixture using the smoothie setting or on high power for about 1 minute, until the banana is completely smooth and there are no lumps of matcha powder.
- Garnish and Serve: Optionally, garnish your smoothie with banana slices and a sprinkle of matcha powder on top before serving.
Notes
- If you don’t have frozen bananas, use a ripe banana and add a few ice cubes for chill and texture.
- Use only ripe bananas for this smoothie as green bananas can be bitter.
- Freeze over-ripe bananas sliced into one-inch chunks for easier blending later.
- Adjust consistency by adding more milk to thin or more yogurt to thicken; using full-fat Greek yogurt also increases creaminess.
- Add ingredients to the blender in the order recommended by your blender for the best blending results.
- Consume immediately for the best flavor and texture.
