Equipment

High-power blender

Ingredients

½ frozen banana
1 scoop vanilla protein powder I use whey
1 tablespoon almond butter
½ teaspoon cinnamon
1 shot of espresso optional
⅔ cups water
Few ice cubes

Instructions

Add all ingredients to the bucket of a high powered blender. Blend for 30-60 seconds until smooth.

Notes

I like to use whey protein, but plant based will work too. Try chocolate protein powder for a different flavour!
My favorite high powered blenders are the ZWILLING ENFINIGY power blender, and the Vitamix E310.
Additional nutrition: Add a handful of spinach, collagen powder, chia seeds, or any other nutritional supplements to bulk up this smoothie.
