Put unsweetened almond milk, Medjool date, almond butter, and frozen sliced bananas into a blender. Secure lid.
Place ingredients into the blender in the order listed.
Blend until smooth.
Start the blender on LOW speed for 10 seconds. Increase speed to HIGH for a full minute.
Pour smoothie into a cup. Serve immediately.

Choose an almond butter without sugar or salt. The most nutritious version will have roasted almonds as the only ingredient.
Slice the bananas into coins before freezing them. Never put a whole frozen banana in your blender, as this can damage the blades.
Choose bananas that are yellow with some dark spots. This means the bananas are ripe and have the best flavor.
If you prefer less sweet smoothies, skip the date syrup.
Add a splash of milk if your smoothie is too thick, then blend for another 10 seconds.
For the best flavor and texture, drink your smoothie as soon as you make it. If needed, refrigerate leftovers in an airtight jar and consume within 2 days.
