My family loves quick and easy recipes made with fresh fruit. I mean, honestly, who doesn’t? With spring and summer right around the corner, fresh sun-ripened fruit will be readily available. This recipe, Mango Smoothie, Strawberry Banana Smoothie, and Strawberry Milk are all quick and easy favorites.
How to make Banana Milk
Recipes don’t get any easier than this. Simply add the milk, banana, cinnamon, and vanilla to a blender and blend until a smooth consistency. Then serve promptly. You can split the recipe in half and make it just for one, or double it and make it for four.
Recipe notes and helpful tips
- The riper the banana, the sweeter the milk, and the greater the banana flavor, so use up those old ones sitting on the counter with brown spots.
- For best results, use ice-cold milk.
- Whole milk tastes the best with this, but you can use 2% or skim milk. Almond milk, soy milk, goat milk, cashew milk, coconut milk, or oat milk are all great dairy-free options.
- This delicious milk needs no added sugar, but if you must, use just a touch of maple syrup or honey.
- For a thicker ice-cold milk treat, freeze the banana chunks for about 2 hours.
- Feel free to add a scoop of vanilla or unflavored protein powder. Or a sprinkle of chia seeds, flax seeds, or a dash of cinnamon.
- This is best served as soon as it is blended to avoid separation.
- Store any leftovers in the refrigerator in an airtight container. Shake well before serving.
