Equipment

Ingredients

  • ½ cup milk (any kind)
  • ¾ cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt
  • 1 Medjool date (pitted)
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • 1 ½ frozen bananas (sliced)

Instructions

  • Put milk, Greek yogurt, Medjool date, protein powder, and frozen 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.

Notes

  • For a thinner smoothie, add a bit of milk and blend for 10 seconds.
  • Chop Medjool date if your blender isn't too powerful.
  • You can make this smoothie with any milk, including dairy and non-dairy alternatives. Examples include unsweetened almond milk, hemp milk, and oat milk.
  • Try using 1 tablespoon maple syrup, honey, or date syrup instead of a Medjool date.
  • Omit the sweetener for a less sweet smoothie.
  • Ripe bananas work best for this recipe. Unripe bananas, which have a green peel, are too bitter.
  • Save leftover smoothie in an airtight glass jar in the refrigerator. Enjoy it within 1-2 days for best results. After this time, the smoothie will start to lose its flavor and nutrients.
