Ingredients
- 1 large ripe banana peeled and frozen
- 1 teaspoon ceremonial-grade matcha powder
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk or oat milk
- 2 tablespoons vanilla Greek yogurt optional
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon almond butter optional
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract optional
- Handful of spinach optional
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds optional
Instructions
- Sift matcha into a blender to remove clumps.
- Add almond milk, yogurt, almond butter, frozen banana chunks, and honey.
- Blend on high for 45–60 seconds until thick and creamy.
- Adjust sweetness or thickness with more honey or milk as needed.
- Serve immediately in a chilled glass, topped with a dusting of matcha or banana slices.
Notes
Use a frozen banana for best texture — fresh bananas make the smoothie watery. Swap almond milk for oat or coconut milk for creamier results. For a vegan version, skip yogurt or use plant-based yogurt. Best enjoyed fresh; if storing, refrigerate for up to 12 hours and reblend before drinking.
