If you’re in the mood for a coffee smoothie, but don’t want to blow your diet out of the water, this easy coffee smoothie recipe is just the thing for you!
I’m not much of an eater in the morning, so I’ve been making this healthy banana coffee smoothie for breakfast. It’s the perfect pick me up! If you’re looking for a non-coffee smoothie, check out our Strawberry Peach Smoothie, Mango Smoothie Recipe, or this Mixed Berry Smoothie made with coconut milk!
Ingredients
- banana
- chia seeds soaked (only add this if you are using a high powered blender)
- strong coffee refrigerated
- almond milk unsweetened
- optional add-ins:
- peanut butter or peanut butter powder
- cocoa powder
- cinnamon
- protein powder
- Cook Mode
- Toggle to green to prevent your screen from going dark while you cook!
Instructions
- Add banana to blender. The more ripe your banana, the sweeter your smoothie will turn out. Just like when you’re making banana bread. Don’t be afraid of the dark spots.
- Add 6 ounces of strong black coffee.
- Add 6 ounces of almond milk. We used vanilla unsweetened.
- Add 1 tablespoon of chia seeds. They’re best if soaked overnight first. If you do not own a high powered blender, you’ll want to skip this step. Gritty coffee is no fun. Don’t worry, it’s still super delicious without the chia!
- Blend until smooth. If you’re using chia seeds, you’ll want to scrape the sides a few times to make sure everything is well blended.
- Serve and enjoy!
