Units
Scale
- 1 cup chopped strawberries, fresh or frozen, plus more for serving
- 1/2 cup blackberries, fresh or frozen, plus more for serving
- 1 ripe (peeled) banana, fresh or frozen
- 2 Tbsp. slivered almonds, plus more for serving
- 1 Tbsp. hemp seeds (optional), plus more for serving
- 2 Tbsp. maple syrup (optional, but recommended)
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt
- 1/2 cup milk
Instructions
- Wash and trim the berries. Add to a blender along with banana, almonds, hemp seeds (if using), maple syrup, yogurt and milk. Blend on low until the almonds and fruit are broken up, about 15 seconds. Increase speed to high and blend until smooth, about 1 minute. Makes enough for 2 servings (see note). Garnish with more fruit, almonds and hemp seeds, if desired.
Notes
- Pour leftover smoothie into an ice cube tray and freeze overnight. Then remove frozen smoothie cubes and transfer to a freezer-safe zip-top bag and freeze for up to 3 months. Blend again into a smoothie (adding more milk, if needed), or enjoy frozen as a snack.
