Ingredients
Scale
- 2 frozen bananas, sliced
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1 teaspoon chai spice blend (cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, cloves, black pepper)
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon almond butter
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup (optional)
- Toppings: Sliced almonds, fresh berries, a sprinkle of extra chai spice
Instructions
- Place the frozen banana slices, almond milk, chai spice blend, vanilla extract, almond butter, and maple syrup (if using) into a high-speed blender.
- Start blending on low, using the tamper to push the ingredients down toward the blades.
- Gradually increase the speed until the mixture is thick and smooth, resembling soft-serve ice cream. Add a tiny splash more milk only if necessary to keep the blades moving.
- Scoop the thick smoothie immediately into a bowl.
- Arrange your desired toppings artfully over the top.
- Serve and enjoy your Sunday Flavor moment right away.
Notes
- You control the spice level; adjust the chai blend to your taste preference.
- For an extra cold bowl, chill your serving bowl in the freezer for 10 minutes before assembling.
- If you do not have a pre-made chai blend, combine 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp cardamom, 1/8 tsp ginger, a pinch of cloves, and a tiny pinch of black pepper.
