Ingredients

Liquids

  • 1
    1 cup Coconut Cream
  • 2
    0.5 cup Water

Fruits

  • 1
    1 medium Banana
  • 2
    0.75 cup Pineapple chunks, fresh or frozen

Sweeteners & Flavorings

  • 1
    1 tablespoon Honey or Maple Syrup
  • 2
    0.25 teaspoon Lime Juice
  • 3
    0.125 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

Optional Add-ins

  • 1
    1 cup Ice Cubes

Directions

1

Prepare the ingredients

Gather all your ingredients. Make sure your coconut cream is well-chilled; this helps in creating a thicker smoothie. If using frozen pineapple, no need to chill it prior, but if fresh, you may want to keep it in the fridge until use.

2

Prepare fruits

Peel your banana and cut it into smaller pieces to make it easier to blend. Measure your pineapple chunks. If using fresh, cut them into similar sized chunks. Have your water, honey/maple syrup, lime juice, and vanilla extract ready.

3

Add liquids to blender

Pour the coconut cream into the blender first, followed by the water. This helps to prevent the other ingredients from sticking to the bottom of the blender.

4

Add solids and flavorings

Add the chopped banana and pineapple chunks into the blender. Next, add your sweetener of choice (honey or maple syrup), lime juice, and vanilla extract. If you want a colder smoothie, add ice cubes at this stage.

5

Blend the smoothie

Secure the lid tightly on your blender. Start blending on low speed, gradually increasing to high speed. Blend until the smoothie is smooth and creamy with no chunks of fruit visible. This should take about 1-2 minutes depending on the power of your blender.

6

Adjust consistency

If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more water, one tablespoon at a time, and blend again until desired consistency is reached. If it’s too thin, add a few more ice cubes and blend again.

7

Serve the smoothie

Pour the smoothie into a glass or a jar. You can garnish with a small pineapple slice or a sprinkle of shredded coconut if desired. Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.

Recipe Tips

  • Use full-fat coconut cream for the best flavor and texture. Lite coconut cream can be used but may result in a thinner smoothie.
  • For a richer flavor, use frozen pineapple or banana. Frozen fruits eliminate the need for ice and provide a colder, thicker texture.
  • Taste and adjust sweetness according to preference. Different types of honey or maple syrup will have slightly different flavor profiles.
  • If you don’t have a high-powered blender, you may need to blend for a longer time to achieve a smooth consistency.
  • For storage, keep the smoothie in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. The texture might change slightly, so it's best consumed fresh. Stir well before drinking if stored.
  • Clean your blender immediately after use to prevent the smoothie residue from drying and becoming harder to clean.
