PREP TIME: 5

TOTAL TIME: 5

Servings: large 750ml smoothie

Ingredients

▢ 2 ripe juicy peaches , (You can use frozen peaches but if you do use a fresh banana and not a frozen one)
▢ 1 medium frozen banana (fresh or frozen)
▢ ¾ cup (180 mls) non-dairy milk
▢ 1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional - add to taste or not at all)
▢ 1 approx 2½ inches long stick fresh ginger , roughly x ½inch wide
▢ OR ¼ to ½ teaspoon ground ginger

INSTRUCTIONS

▢
Remove the pits from the peaches and add them along with the other ingredients to a blender. I recommend starting with only half of the fresh ginger or ¼ teaspoon of ground ginger.
▢
Blend until smooth then give it a taste. Add a little more ginger if you want a stronger flavour.
▢
Serve immediately

NOTES

Making in advance

Once blended it's best to drink this smoothie immediately. It doesn't store well. However, you can prep the ingredients in advance to make it even quicker and easier to make in the mornings.

To do this simply pack your pitted and sliced peaches, banana and ginger into individual bags and freeze them. When you’re ready to blend, add the plant milk and blend it up. I do recommend adding a little more milk though as everything is frozen. If you don't your blender will have a hard time and your smoothie will be too thick. Go for ¼ of a cup (60 ml) extra to start and add more as needed to get things blending smoothly.
