This 4 Ingredient strawberry banana smoothie is so good!
Smoothies have gotten a little out of control lately. Every time I see one online it has powders, seeds, nut butters, and five different supplements in it. This strawberry banana smoothie is the opposite of that. It’s just the basics, and honestly that’s why I keep making it.
It’s strawberries, frozen banana, milk, and a scoop of Greek yogurt for some protein and creaminess. That’s it. No sweeteners unless you want them. It blends up thick and smooth, and I usually make it when I need something quick in the morning or a simple afternoon snack that doesn’t require thinking.
Happy Cooking!

Strawberry Banana Smoothie Ingredients
- Bananas: I like to use frozen bananas for an extra cold and creamy smoothie!
- Strawberries: I prefer fresh strawberries, but frozen berries will work here, too.
- Greek yogurt: I like to use full-fat Greek yogurt to thicken my smoothies but low-fat or coconut yogurt will work, too.
- Milk: I usually go for whole milk for this strawberry banana smoothie, but any type of diary or non-dairy milk will do!

Recipe Variations
- Strawberry Banana Protein Smoothie: Add 1 scoop vanilla protein powder and an extra splash of milk to keep it smooth. This makes it more filling if you’re using it as a meal.
- Strawberry Banana Peanut Butter: Add 1 tablespoon peanut butter before blending. It makes it a little richer and keeps you full longer.
- Strawberry Banana Oat Smoothie: Add 2 tablespoons rolled oats and blend well. It thickens the smoothie slightly and makes it more substantial without changing the flavor too much.
Recipe Tips
- Use a high speed blender. A higher-powered blender will help you get the silkiest smoothie possible. But if you don’t have a high speed blender, it’s still possible to make a great strawberry banana smoothie! Just stir it every once in a while with a long spoon and blend for an extra minute or two to ensure no chunks are left behind.
- Don’t use ice. Since we’re using frozen bananas, there’s no need for ice. Plus, when the ice starts melting, the smoothie will get watered down.
- Drink your smoothie right away. The texture, taste, and color are all best right after it’s blended.
FAQs
Your strawberries might not have been ripe enough! To sweeten up your smoothie, drizzle in a little honey or pure maple syrup. Start with just a little at a time, because a little goes a long way.
Sometimes a few too many berries and bananas can thicken your smoothie too much. To thin it out, just add a little milk and blend again until the consistency is to your liking.

Can I substitute Greek Yogurt with Laban?
I’m sure you could! You may need to adjust the amount of milk to accommodate the thickness of the Laban.
