Ingredients
- 1/2 to 1 ripe avocado
- 1 banana (frozen or fresh)
- 200ml milk
- Honey or syrup to taste
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
★ Know Your Avocado: Tips for Perfect Ripeness ★
– Avocados with a bright green skin are best enjoyed after ripening at room temperature for 3-4 days; they will be wonderfully creamy.
– Avocados with a dark greenish-brown skin are usually ready in 1-2 days.
– Avocados with brown skin are typically ready to eat immediately. Gently press the skin to check for softness; it should yield slightly to pressure.
Step 2
Add 1 banana to your blender or food processor. Using a frozen banana will result in a colder, thicker, and more milkshake-like consistency.
Step 3
Cut the ripe avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into the blender. (Using half an avocado is perfectly fine and will still yield a delicious smoothie.)
Step 4
If you prefer a sweeter taste, add about 1 tablespoon of honey or syrup. You can adjust the amount based on your preference, as the avocado and banana provide natural sweetness.
Step 5
Pour 200ml of milk over the ingredients. You can use regular milk, low-fat milk, or even a plant-based milk like almond milk or soy milk for a dairy-free option.
Step 6
Secure the lid on your blender and process until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, usually about 30 seconds to 1 minute. You’ll know it’s ready when the ‘whirring’ sound subsides and a light foam appears. Pour into a glass and enjoy your delicious and satisfying Abashake! It’s a perfect, wholesome meal replacement.
