Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups fresh mango, peeled and chopped
- 1 cup full-fat canned coconut milk (or carton coconut milk for lighter option)
- 1 small banana, frozen or fresh
- ½ cup Greek yogurt (optional; can substitute with dairy-free coconut yogurt)
- 1–2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup, to taste (optional)
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
- Toppings:
- Granola (lightly sweetened, nutty)
- Toasted coconut flakes
- Fresh mango chunks
- Chopped nuts or seeds (almonds, pumpkin seeds)
- Fresh mint leaves (optional)
Instructions
- Peel and chop about 1 ½ cups of ripe mango. If banana isn’t frozen, peel, slice, and freeze it to chill.
- In a high-speed blender, combine mango, coconut milk, frozen banana, Greek yogurt (if using), lime juice, vanilla extract, and honey or maple syrup. Blend on high until silky smooth and thick enough to hold a spoon.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or lime juice as needed. Blend briefly again to mix.
- Prepare toppings: toast coconut flakes in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden (about 2 minutes), chop fresh mango chunks, and gather granola and nuts.
- Scoop smoothie base into serving bowls and arrange toppings on top: granola, toasted coconut flakes, fresh mango pieces, chia seeds or nuts, and mint leaves if desired.
- Serve immediately for best freshness and texture.
Notes
Use ripe mangoes for best sweetness and smooth texture. Frozen banana helps thicken the smoothie without watering it down. Adjust thickness by adding ice cubes or more coconut milk as needed. Toast coconut flakes and nuts for extra crunch and flavor. Store smoothie base refrigerated up to 24 hours; add toppings fresh before serving. For vegan version, substitute Greek yogurt with coconut yogurt and honey with maple syrup. Experiment with thickness to preference.
