Sometimes in the morning all you have time for is a quick and easy smoothie for breakfast... and so we have some good news for you! Our Healthy Thermomix Chocolate Banana Smoothie takes less than 2 minutes to make AND it tastes absolutely delicious.
This one is also sure to be a winner with the kids! It tastes just like a store-bought chocolate milkshake - but it's completely healthy! The chocolate flavour comes from the addition of cocoa (or cacao) powder. How easy is that!
This recipe works best with frozen bananas, however, if you only have fresh ones on hand that's absolutely fine. Just throw in a handful of ice cubes to the mix and you'll end up with virtually the same result.
And so, next time you need breakfast on the run, a mid-afternoon pick me up, or a late night 'treat', then whip up one of our choc banana smoothies. You certainly won't regret it!

fantastic recipe!! i was thinking of using almond milk instead of normal milk and honey, but i used the original suggestion and it turned out great. although the honey seemed to sink to the bottom of the thermomix, i could still taste it in the finished product. the yoghurt adds a great consistency and creaminess. however, this recipe for me made four glasses (all of which i could drink for myself if everyone else didnt down them the second they were made!) rather than the suggested 2 serves... oh well, the more the merrier!
