The Almond Joy Smoothie is a rich, chocolatey blend of banana, almond, and coconut that recreates the flavor of the classic candy bar in a healthy, drinkable form—perfect for breakfast, a snack, or post-workout refuel.

Ingredients

  • 1 frozen banana
  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder or 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
  • 3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
  • 1 tablespoon almond butter or 2 tablespoons raw almonds
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt or non-dairy yogurt (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup or honey (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds or flax seeds (optional)
  • Ice cubes (optional, as needed)

Instructions

  1. Add the frozen banana, cocoa powder, almond butter, and shredded coconut to a high-speed blender.
  2. Pour in the almond milk and add yogurt if using.
  3. Include maple syrup and vanilla extract if desired.
  4. Add chia seeds or flax seeds for an extra nutritional boost.
  5. Toss in ice cubes for a thicker, frosty texture.

Notes

  • Add a shot of espresso for a mocha twist.
