Perfect breakfast accompaniment, this Strawberry and Banana Smoothie is something everyone will love! Try this quick and healthy recipe that’s full on taste!
I’m a sucker for strawberries and anything that’s remotely strawberry-like, call me a girly girl but that’s how it is! I cannot refuse strawberries..so when they’re in season I go mad and I mean seriously MAD. I start my day with some muesli with yogurt and strawberries and try to end my day with these dessert kebabs (again strawberries 😉 ) So how could I let this season pass on without me trying my hand on my fav smoothie in the whole wide world (after my snickers smoothie of course)! This is my first attempt and I’m proud to report that it was a success! This smoothie was smooth, thick and delicious!
If you follow my blog you’ll know that I used to hate smoothies with yogurt in them..well, that has changed. YES. I’ve started loving yogurt and I used that in this smoothie recipe too! What’s great about this recipe is that apart from yogurt, it has frozen bananas (which make your smoothie SUPER thick) and also ripe bananas so this smoothie is just the thickest one out there. Don’t worry you’ll still be able to drink it with a straw but I can assure you that it’s nothing like a shake..this is the real thing.
Why I use a frozen banana, you ask!? It’s because it just thickens up your smoothie like nothing else! All you need to do is freeze a banana overnight and whizz it in a blender the next day..you will witness something super cool. The banana actually turns into this creamy frozen yogurt and when you add it to the other ingredients, together they make super trooper thick smoothies! Try it this time and let me know what you think.. if you wanna see how the frozen banana thing works (with pictures) check this out. You can make lots of stuff with it like this Chocolate Chip Ice Cream.
Coming back to this smoothie, it’s thick and delicious! Give it a shot before the season ends and let me know what you think! Here’s the recipe for this delicious smoothie..Try it and enjoy!
- • Ripe Strawberries, 8-10
- • Ripe Bananas, 3 (1 frozen and 2 ripe)
- • Yogurt, 4 tablespoons
- • Milk, ⅓ cup or 80 ml
- • Sugar syrup or honey, as per taste
- Whizz frozen banana in a blender, once it's smooth and creamy add in the other ingredients and some ice and whizz again until you reach a smooth creamy consistancy. Adjust the sweetness according to your taste and enjoy this smoothie for breakfast!

Beautiful desert dish. Yummy one. Wish I could get that. Thank u for the share…Will try to make it out.
Thank you so much! This is more like a breakfast dish but you should definitely try it out 🙂
Are there any substitutes for yoghurt? Can’t find unflavoured yoghurt in Delhi.
Hi Anupriya, unflavoured yogurt is nothing but dahi which is available pretty much every where. You can use Nestle A+ or Danone or just about any you get your hands on. You can use homemade dahi too. 🙂
A great smoothie for sure but with the bananas and strawberries it doesn’t really need the honey if you ask me.
Hi, ofcourse if the bananas are ripe then honey can be skipped but i tend to like my smoothies on the sweeter side hence the addition 🙂
