Equipment

  • 1 Blender (high-speed blender preferred for a smooth consistency)
  • Measuring spoons (for ingredients like maple syrup and cinnamon)
  • Measuring cups (for almond milk and chia seeds)
  • 1 Knife and cutting board (to slice the banana, if needed)
  • 1 Glass or mason jar (for serving)
  • 1 Straw (optional) (for a fun touch)

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Ripe banana (for creaminess and natural sweetness)
  • 1 Cup Unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
  • 1 tbsp Pure maple syrup (preferably Grade A for the best flavor)
  • ½ tsp Ground cinnamon (adjust to your preference)
  • 1 tbsp Chia seeds (for added fiber and omega-3s)
  • ½ tsp Vanilla extract (optional, for an extra layer of flavor)
  • ½ Cup Ice cubes (for a refreshing chill)

Instructions
 

  • Prepare your ingredients: Start by peeling and slicing your ripe banana. If you prefer a thicker consistency, use a banana that has been frozen for a few hours.
  • Blend the base: In a high-speed blender, combine the banana, almond milk, maple syrup, and ground cinnamon. Blend on high until the ingredients are smooth and well combined.
  • Add the chia seeds: Toss in the chia seeds and vanilla extract (if using), and blend again for a few seconds to incorporate them. These seeds will give your smoothie a subtle texture and make it more filling.
  • Add ice and blend again: Throw in the ice cubes for that refreshing, chilled effect. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  • Taste test: Give your smoothie a quick taste and adjust the sweetness or cinnamon level to your liking. If you prefer it sweeter, add a bit more maple syrup. Want more spice? Sprinkle in a dash more cinnamon!
  • Serve immediately: Pour your Cinnamon Maple Smoothie into a tall glass and garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon on top. You can even add a drizzle of maple syrup for extra flair.

Notes

Special Tips:
  • Use frozen banana to make your smoothie extra thick and creamy.
  • You can substitute almond milk with oat milk or dairy milk based on your preference.
  • If your smoothie is too thick, you can thin it out with a splash more almond milk or water.
