1 very ripe banana, peeled and sliced1/2 cup low-fat milk1/2 cup plain yogurt2 Tbsp unsalted almonds1/4 tsp ground cinnamon1 tsp vanilla extract
2 ice cubes
Wash your hands with soap and water, then gather all of your kitchen gear and ingredients and put them on a clean counter.Put all the ingredients in the blender. Put the top on tightly, turn the blender to a medium setting and blend until the ice is chopped and the mixture is smooth, about a minute.Serve right away – or store in a thermos or covered in the refrigerator, up to 4 hours.Think ahead: Freeze the banana ahead of time for a thicker, slushier, smoothie!
