Ingredients
  

2 ripe bananas, frozen

1 cup fresh pineapple chunks (or canned, drained)

1 cup coconut milk (or almond milk for a lighter version)

1/2 cup Greek yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt)

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (adjust based on sweetness preference)

1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional, for added nutrition)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup crushed ice (optional, for extra chill)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: If you haven't already, freeze the bananas the night before for a thicker smoothie texture. Gather all the ingredients.

    Blend the Bananas and Pineapple: In a blender, combine the frozen bananas and fresh pineapple chunks. Blend on low until roughly chopped.

      Add the Dairy and Sweeteners: Pour in the coconut milk and add the Greek yogurt. Then, add honey or maple syrup, chia seeds (if using), and vanilla extract.

        Blend Until Smooth: Start blending at a low speed and gradually increase to high. Blend for about 30-45 seconds until the mixture is smooth and creamy. If the mixture is too thick, add a little more coconut milk until you reach the desired consistency.

          Incorporate Crushed Ice (Optional): If you prefer a frostier texture, add the crushed ice and blend again briefly until incorporated.

            Taste and Adjust: Taste the smoothie and adjust the sweetness if necessary by adding a little more honey or syrup. Blend again if you've added anything.

              Serve: Pour the smoothie into tall glasses and garnish with a slice of fresh pineapple or a banana slice on the rim if desired. Enjoy immediately!
