Main Ingredients
- 125g Blueberries
- 1 Banana
- 80g Plain Yogurt
- 1.5 cups Milk
For Washing Blueberries
- 1 Tbsp Vinegar (or 1 Tbsp Baking Soda)
- 1 Tbsp Vinegar (or 1 Tbsp Baking Soda)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s prepare the fresh blueberries. In a bowl, combine blueberries with 1 tablespoon of vinegar (or baking soda) mixed in water. Gently roll the blueberries with your hands to loosen any dirt, then rinse them thoroughly under cold running water and drain well. This method effectively removes any residual pesticides or dust.
Step 2
Next, prepare the banana, which will add creaminess to your smoothie. Peel the banana and cut it into manageable pieces, about 2-3 cm in size, for easy blending.
Step 3
Now, it’s time to combine all the ingredients in the blender. Add the washed and drained blueberries, the sliced banana, and 80g of plain yogurt to the blender jar. Pour in 1.5 cups (approximately 300ml) of milk. You can adjust the amount of milk to achieve your desired consistency.
Step 4
If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, you can add about 1 tablespoon of honey or corn syrup. This is especially great if you’re making it for children! Secure the lid on the blender and process until the mixture is smooth and creamy, with no lumps. Be careful not to over-blend, as this can create too much foam.
Step 5
Carefully pour the smoothly blended smoothie into your favorite glass. For an extra touch, you can garnish with a few fresh blueberries or a sprig of mint. Enjoy your delicious Blueberry Banana Smoothie right away! It’s perfect as a breakfast substitute or a healthy snack.
