Ingredients
Scale
- 6–8 medium fresh figs (about 200g)
- 1 cup (240ml) full-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 medium banana, peeled
- ½ cup (120ml) unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
Instructions
- Wash and trim the fresh figs, removing stems and roughly chopping into halves or quarters.
- Peel the banana and measure out the Greek yogurt, almond milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, and honey if using.
- Add chopped figs, banana, Greek yogurt, almond milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, and honey into a high-speed blender. Add chia seeds last.
- Blend on high until the mixture is thick, creamy, and smooth. Add more almond milk if needed to reach desired consistency.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or spice by adding more honey, cinnamon, or nutmeg if desired. Pulse briefly to combine.
- Pour the smoothie into a bowl and top with optional toppings such as toasted walnuts or pecans, fresh sliced figs or berries, shredded coconut, gluten-free granola, and a drizzle of honey or nut butter.
- Enjoy immediately for best texture and flavor.
Notes
Use ripe figs for best flavor. Soak dried figs in warm water for 10 minutes if fresh figs are not available. Adjust thickness by adding more or less almond milk. Substitute coconut or almond yogurt for a dairy-free version. Toast nuts and prep toppings ahead for convenience. Add nut butter or protein powder for extra filling power.
