Ingredients
2 ripe bananas
1 teaspoon matcha powder
1 cup almond milk (or other milk of choice)
1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, adjust to taste)
Optional: 1 handful spinach
Optional: 1 tablespoon chia seeds
Optional: 1 scoop protein powder
Instructions
- Peel and slice the ripe bananas.
- Add bananas, matcha powder, almond milk, and sweetener (honey or maple syrup) to a blender.
- Blend until smooth and creamy.
- If desired, add optional ingredients such as spinach, chia seeds, or protein powder and blend again until fully incorporated.

Notes
- Best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Shake before drinking.
- For a thicker smoothie, use frozen bananas.
- Nut-free option: replace almond milk with oat or coconut milk.
- To make naturally sweeter, use an extra ripe banana or add a Medjool date.
- Matcha contains caffeine, so adjust amount if serving to kids.
