- 1 cup
- Honey
- 1 tablespoon, or to taste
- Yogurt
- 1 cup, plain or vanilla
- Ripe bananas
- 2 medium-sized
Instructions

- Place the banana chunks, yogurt, honey, and ice cubes into a blender.

Tips
- For an extra protein boost, consider adding a scoop of your favorite protein powder or a spoonful of nut butter to the blender.
- If you prefer a thicker smoothie, add a few additional ice cubes or freeze the bananas beforehand.
- For a vegan version, swap the yogurt for a dairy-free alternative and use agave nectar instead of honey.
