Print Recipe

A creamy, high-protein smoothie blending Greek yogurt, mixed berries, and a spicy chili crunch topping for a flavorful energy boost. Perfect for quick breakfasts, post-workout fuel, or a nutritious snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) plain Greek yogurt, full-fat or 2%
  • 1 cup (150 g) mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries), fresh or frozen
  • 1 medium ripe banana, sliced
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) unsweetened almond milk or milk of choice
  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml) honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon (12 g) chia seeds
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract
  • 2 tablespoons (30 g) chili crunch topping (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the ingredients: peel and slice the banana, measure berries (no need to thaw if frozen), and gather Greek yogurt, almond milk, honey, chia seeds, and vanilla extract.
  2. Add to blender: combine Greek yogurt, mixed berries, banana, almond milk, honey or maple syrup (if using), chia seeds, and vanilla extract in the blender pitcher.
  3. Blend until smooth: blend on high for 45-60 seconds until creamy and smooth with no large berry chunks.
  4. Check consistency: if too thick, add more almond milk and pulse; if too thin, add more berries or yogurt to thicken.
  5. Serve with chili crunch: pour smoothie into glasses or mason jars and top each serving with 2 tablespoons of chili crunch.
  6. Enjoy immediately to keep the chili crunch crisp and flavors vibrant.

Notes

Use ripe bananas for natural sweetness and frozen berries to keep the smoothie chilled without watering it down. Let chia seeds absorb liquid for a richer texture. Adjust honey or maple syrup based on fruit ripeness. Add chili crunch just before serving to maintain its crunch. Homemade chili crunch can be made by heating oil with chili flakes, garlic, and soy sauce until crispy.
