Refreshing Banana Blueberry Frappuccino (Print version)
A creamy, cold banana blueberry frappuccino made with frozen fruit, yogurt, milk, vanilla, and a small handful of ice.
# Ingredients:
For the frappuccino
01 -
1 large ripe banana, sliced and frozen
02 -
3/4 cup (110 g) frozen blueberries
03 -
1/2 cup (120 ml) milk, dairy or oat milk
04 -
1/3 cup (80 g) plain Greek yogurt
05 -
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
06 -
1-2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup, optional
07 -
1/2 cup ice cubes
08 -
Small pinch of fine salt, optional
For topping
09 -
2 tablespoons whipped cream or coconut whip, optional
10 -
2 tablespoons fresh blueberries
11 -
4-5 banana slices
# Instructions:
01 -
Pour the milk into the blender first, then add the Greek yogurt and vanilla. This helps the blades move before the frozen fruit goes in.
02 -
Add the frozen banana slices, frozen blueberries, ice, and a small pinch of salt if using. Add honey or maple syrup only if your banana is not very ripe.
03 -
Blend on low for 10-15 seconds, then increase to high and blend for 30-45 seconds until thick and creamy. Stop and scrape the sides if needed.
04 -
If the mixture is too thick, blend in 1 tablespoon of milk at a time. If it is too thin, add a few more frozen banana slices or frozen blueberries.
05 -
Pour into a tall chilled glass. Top with whipped cream, fresh blueberries, and banana slices if desired. Serve immediately.
# Good to know:
01 -
Best served right after blending while thick and frosty.
02 -
Freeze ripe banana slices ahead for the smoothest texture.
03 -
Use oat milk and coconut yogurt for a dairy-free variation.
