Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks
- 1 frozen banana, peeled prior to freezing
- 1/4 cup frozen coconut chunks, or 3-4 tbsp shredded coconut
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tsp lemon juice
- 1/2 cup coconut milk
Optional Toppings
- Granola
- Coconut flakes
- Fresh pineapple pieces
- Sliced banana
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather all frozen fruits including pineapple chunks, peeled frozen banana, and frozen coconut chunks or shredded coconut, along with maple syrup, lemon juice, and coconut milk.
- Blend Ingredients: Add all ingredients into a high-powered blender and blend until smooth and creamy. Use minimal liquid to keep a thick consistency; add more coconut milk only if needed to help the blades move if the mixture is too thick.
- Serve and Garnish: Transfer the smoothie mixture to a bowl. Add your favorite toppings such as granola, coconut flakes, fresh pineapple pieces, and sliced banana for added texture and flavor.
Notes
- For a thicker bowl, use less coconut milk; for a thinner smoothie, add more liquid.
- Frozen fruit chunks help create a creamy, ice-cream-like texture without added ice.
- Maple syrup can be adjusted or omitted based on your preferred sweetness level.
- Use fresh toppings to add a delightful crunch and variety of flavors.
- This recipe can be easily made vegan and gluten-free.
