Notes
Use frozen bananas for the best texture and taste. Frozen bananas chill the smoothie and make it thick and creamy. If using fresh banana, add 1/4–1/2 cup ice and reduce the liquid by 1/4 cup.
Add more or less liquid to adjust the texture. Use less for a thicker smoothie, more for a thinner consistency.
If not using protein powder, add a sweetener. The protein powder adds sweetness and protein. If skipping it, add maple syrup, honey, or 1–2 medjool dates to balance the flavor.
