Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups frozen pineapple chunks
  • 2 ripe bananas peeled and sliced
  • 1 cup full-fat canned coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup coconut yogurt or Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup pineapple juice
  • 1/4 cup rolled oats
  • 2 tablespoons shredded unsweetened coconut
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup optional
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Juice of 1/2 lime
  • 1 cup ice cubes

Method
 

  1. Gather all ingredients and ensure your blender is ready for thick blending; a high-speed blender works best.
  2. Add the coconut milk, pineapple juice, coconut yogurt, bananas, and vanilla extract to the blender first for easier blending.
  3. Layer in the frozen pineapple chunks, rolled oats, shredded coconut, lime juice, and ice cubes on top.
  4. Blend on high speed for 30-60 seconds until smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed.
  5. If the smoothie is too thick, add a splash more pineapple juice or coconut water and blend again until desired consistency.
  6. Taste and adjust sweetness with honey or maple syrup if needed, then blend briefly once more.
  7. Divide the smoothie equally into 4 glasses or bowls for serving.
  8. Garnish with extra shredded coconut, pineapple slices, or a cherry on top for a fun presentation.
  9. Serve immediately for the best texture, or store leftovers in an airtight jar in the fridge for up to 24 hours.

Notes

For a protein boost, add a scoop of vanilla protein powder. Use frozen bananas for extra creaminess. Shake or re-blend leftovers before enjoying.
