Ingredients

1 servings

½ cup almond milk or milk of choice
1 medium -to-large frozen banana (break your bananas into one-inch chunks before freezing)
1 ½ tablespoons flax seed
2 tablespoons almond butter
Optional: ¼ to 1 teaspoon maple syrup
⅛ teaspoon almond extract, to taste (or vanilla extract, but the almond extract makes the smoothie taste almost like candy!)

Steps

Toss all the ingredients into a blender, in the order listed.
Blend on low until the blender gains traction, then ramp up to the highest speed as soon as possible (or if your blender has a smoothie function, that will work well).
Taste, and if you would like stronger almond flavor, add up to ⅛ teaspoon more almond extract and blend again. Enjoy while cold.
