Tips:

  • Choose ripe bananas: Using ripe bananas adds natural sweetness and creaminess to the smoothie without the need for additional sweeteners.
  • Use unsweetened sunflower seed butter: This helps control the amount of sugar in the smoothie and allows you to adjust the sweetness level to your preference.
  • Adjust liquid as needed: The amount of liquid needed may vary depending on the desired consistency of the smoothie. Add more liquid for a thinner smoothie or less for a thicker one.
  • Add protein powder for an extra boost: If you're looking for a more protein-packed smoothie, add a scoop of your favorite protein powder to the mix.
  • Top with your favorite additions: Feel free to top the smoothie with additional nuts, seeds, or fresh fruits for extra flavor and texture.
