Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 whole (medium-sized) nectarines
- 1 cup (fresh or canned, drained) pineapple chunks
- 1 whole (ripe) banana
- 1 cup orange juice
- 0.5 cup (plain or vanilla) Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon (optional, for added sweetness) honey
- 6 pieces ice cubes
Instructions
Wash the nectarines thoroughly and remove the pits. Cut the nectarines into small slices for easier blending.
Measure out 1 cup of pineapple chunks. If using canned pineapple, make sure to drain the liquid.
Peel the banana and break it into smaller chunks.
In a blender, combine the nectarine slices, pineapple chunks, banana, orange juice, and Greek yogurt.
Add honey to the blender if you'd like a sweeter smoothie.
Add the ice cubes on top of the other ingredients.
Blend on high until smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes. Stop and scrape down the sides if needed.
Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness by adding more honey if necessary, then blend again briefly.
Pour the smoothie into two glasses and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with a slice of nectarine or a small pineapple wedge on the rim of the glass.
