Deliciously creamy Avocado Banana Smoothie recipe made with healthy ingredients that can be served for breakfast or snack and are naturally gluten-free, dairy-free, and paleo-friendly.

Even though you are not a smoothie person, you’re bound to love this nutritionally rich avocado and banana smoothie that is both silky and delicious and takes five minutes to make. My toddler daughter Dhwani also loves this drink.

I remember drinking this avocado smoothie, also known as Butternut Fruit, in India while working in the Cognizant cafeteria post-lunch.

Avocados are loaded with mono-saturated fatty acids, suitable for a healthy heart. Besides, avocados are rich in potassium, fiber, antioxidants, and many vitamins like B, K, C, and E

I love avocados, and this green drink is becoming our staple breakfast smoothie. I also sometimes add chia seeds or flaxseed meal while blending for a nutritional boost.

Ingredients for Avocado Smoothie

You need very few ingredients to make this healthy avocado breakfast smoothie.

  • Avocado: should be very ripe to get a smooth and velvety texture. Fresh or frozen both works.
  • Banana: It adds sweetness and makes this smoothie even creamier. Fresh or frozen both works.
  • Milk: I've used almond milk in this smoothie, but you can use dairy, soy, oat, or any other type of milk. You can also use yogurt in place of milk.
  • Sweetener:  add a sweetener of your choices like maple syrup, honey, agave, or dates. It's optional.
  • Toppings: I've used pistachios, you can top with any nuts.

How to Make Avocado Banana Smoothie

Firstly, add all the ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth. You can also use a Vitamix Blender as it blends a super smooth smoothie in a few seconds.

Serving Suggestions

Serve this nutrient-dense smoothie as a snack or a healthy breakfast. You can also enjoy this with sandwiches or pancakes.

Variations

  • If you are vegan use almond milk, coconut milk, oat milk, and honey with maple syrup.
  • You can also replace milk with greek yogurt (skip if vegan).
  • You can also add seasonal fruits like mango, blueberries, strawberries along with avocados and bananas in this smoothie.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder to make a chocolate avocado smoothie recipe.
  • If you are drinking this smoothie post-workout then add 1 scoop of protein powder and blend.
  • To make it healthier add a handful of fresh spinach or kale and chia seeds while blending.
