Scale

- 1 frozen banana, sliced
- 1/2 cup frozen pineapple
- 4 Medjool dates**
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/8 teaspoon cinnamon

Notes
*For a vegan date smoothie, use oat milk in place of the Greek yogurt and milk, starting with 3/4 cup and adding more as needed. Consider adding a protein source like 1 tablespoon almond butter, chia seeds or protein powder.
*Medjool dates are the best for this smoothie. If you can’t find them, deglet noor dates can work too. However, this type of date is much harder in texture and not as sweet. Use 8 deglet noor dates to equal 4 Medjool dates.
