Yields: 2 smoothies
Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas frozen (Yes, you an use room temp ’nanas in a pinch, but then you’ll have to add more ice…)
- 1 teaspoon fresh orange zest This is the zest from about ½ an orange.
- 1½ cups fresh squeezed orange juice This is the juice from about 2-3 oranges, depending on their size.
- ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk
- ¾ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 4-6 ice cubes
- 1 tablespoon agave optional (I don’t think this smoothie needs it, but if you’re into things extra sweet, go for it.)
Instructions
- Peel your bananas, place them in a Ziploc bag and freeze overnight.
- Juice your oranges. You can do this using a fancy juicer, citrus press, or by hand. (Relax, you’ll only need to juice 3 at most.)
- Place the frozen bananas, orange zest, orange juice, almond milk, vanilla extract, and ice in a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. (Add agave to sweeten if necessary.)
- Pour into two glasses and garnish with orange slices if you’re feeling fancy.
