Pear Smoothie with Coconut Milk
Creamy and gently sweet, with juicy pear, soft banana and a clear coconut finish.
This smoothie is all about texture. A ripe pear blends into a smooth, juicy base, the banana thickens it and the coconut milk wraps everything in a mild, nutty creaminess. Drinking coconut milk from the carton is lighter than the canned kind used for cooking and is the better choice here. The recipe is naturally free of dairy and needs no added sugar. It makes a gentle breakfast or a sweet snack that still feels light.
Yes. All ingredients are plant based.
Yes, but dilute it: about one part canned coconut milk to two parts water.
It keeps covered in the fridge overnight; stir well, as coconut milk can separate.
