1. Coconut Banana Breakfast Smoothie Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 ripe banana, peeled and sliced
• 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (or yogurt of your choice)
• 1/2 cup coconut milk (or almond milk for a lighter option)
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil (melted)
• 1 tablespoon chia seeds
• 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Ice cubes (optional)

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
   • Gather all the ingredients and have them ready for blending.
2. Melt Coconut Oil:
   • If the coconut oil is solid, melt it slightly until it becomes a liquid. You can do this by placing the coconut oil container in warm water or microwaving it for a few seconds.
3. Combine in Blender:
   • In a blender, add the sliced banana, Greek yogurt, coconut milk, melted coconut oil, chia seeds, honey or maple syrup (if using), and vanilla extract.
4. Add Ice Cubes (Optional):
   • If you prefer a colder and thicker smoothie, add a handful of ice cubes to the blender.
5. Blend Until Smooth:
   • Blend all the ingredients until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency. If the smoothie is too thick, you can add more coconut milk or water to reach your desired texture.
6. Taste and Adjust:
   • Taste the smoothie and adjust the sweetness if necessary by adding more honey or maple syrup.
7. Serve Immediately:
   • Pour the coconut banana breakfast smoothie into a glass and enjoy it immediately.

Optional Additions:

• Protein Boost: Add a scoop of your favorite protein powder for an extra protein boost, making it a more satisfying breakfast option.
• Nutty Crunch: Sprinkle some chopped nuts (such as almonds or walnuts) on top for a delightful nutty crunch.
• Garnish: Garnish with shredded coconut or a slice of banana for a visually appealing touch.

Benefits:

• Energy Boost: The combination of banana and coconut oil provides a natural energy boost to kickstart your day.
• Healthy Fats: Coconut oil adds healthy fats to the smoothie, promoting satiety and supporting brain health.
• Probiotics: Greek yogurt contributes probiotics for gut health, and chia seeds provide a dose of omega-3 fatty acids and fiber.

2. Good Morning Smoothie

• Servings: 1
• Prep Time: 5 minutes (plus freezing time for banana)

Ingredients

• 1 frozen banana
• ½ cup coconut milk or raw milk
• ¼ cup organic rolled oats
• ¼ cup tahini or peanut butter
• 2 tsp. coconut oil, warmed
• ½ tsp. homemade or organic vanilla extract
• Optional: Dash of cinnamon Handful of fresh curled parsley

3. Blueberry Banana Breakfast Smoothie

• Servings: 2
• Prep Time: 5 minutes

Ingredients

• 2 bananas
• 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
• 1 Tbsp. coconut oil, warmed to melting
• 1 Tbsp. coconut flour or 1 Tbsp. coconut flakes
• 1 cup whole raw milk or coconut milk

Directions:

Place all ingredients into a blender or food processor and process for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Pour into two glasses and enjoy.

This recipe is also exceptional when the blueberries are swapped out for strawberries. Either way it’s one of our favorite summer breakfasts. Heavenly berry season eating that can be extended all year by freezing some of your local berry crop. Frozen berries will easily retain their goodness and nutrition for six months.
