I love breakfast smoothies! They are incredibly delicious, yet so healthy and nutritious. What’s not to love about them?

So, today I bring you my Banana Breakfast Smoothie.

Made from only 4 ingredients, this banana smoothie is delicious, healthy, and filling. This is THE most perfect smoothie for breakfast!

If you’re a banana fan, you are gonna love it. ♥

This is my most requested smoothie to make, and is loved by both kids AND adults, so be prepared to make this most, if not, every morning!

Why this recipe works

  • These smoothies are deliciously thick from using frozen bananas. You can certainly use fresh bananas, but it may not be as thick unless you use a little less milk.
  • Greek-style yogurt adds to the thickness and creaminess of the smoothie.
  • The amount of milk can be changed if you are craving a thick smoothie, or a more thin one.
  • Honey can also be adjusted depending on how sweet you want it.
  • You only need 4 ingredients, and it’s such an adaptable recipe. You just can’t go wrong with this smoothie.

How to make Banana Breakfast Smoothie

Ingredients you’ll need:

  • bananas – you’ll need 2 large ones, or 4 small ones
  • greek-style yogurt – plain or vanilla flavour!
  • almond milk (or any kind you like)
  • honeyor maple syrup or agave to taste

Have all of them? Go make this smoothie!

This smoothie is made from 2 large bananas, Greek-style yogurt, almond milk, and a little honey for sweetness.

Simply blend all the ingredients together in a blender until smooth and thick. If you don’t have a blender, you may use a food processor.

I like my smoothies thick, but if you find it to be too thick for your liking, just add more milk!

This recipe yields one very large smoothie, or two smaller ones. It’s quite a filling smoothie, so if you don’t want to drink it all in one go, save the rest for later, or the next morning.

The printable recipe card with the FULL list of ingredients and instructions can be found at the bottom of this post.

NOTE: For best results, I highly recommend using the gram measurements (with a digital scale), rather than the cup measurements.

Cup measurements are simply not accurate enough, and I cannot guarantee the best results if you use them.

Tips & tricks for this recipe

Here are a few tips and tricks for making this smoothie.

  • This smoothie recipe can easily be halved or even doubled depending on how many smoothies you want to make.
  • Depending on your preference, you can either make this smoothie thick or runny. For a thick smooth, follow the recipe completely and use FROZEN slices of banana. For a more runny smoothie, use fresh banana slices, and add a little more milk.
  • Honey is for taste and sweetness and is totally optional. Depending on how ripe your bananas are, the smoothie may be plenty sweet for your tastes already.
  • Mix it up and throw in another lot of your favourite fruit! How about banana and strawberry? If doing this, simply replace a banana with the same amount (weight) of the other fruit.

Hi! I can't do yoghurts as dairy products don't sit well with me, can I skip it or what should I replace it with? I can't wait to try this to drink in the morning before my yoga practice!
