Notes
Age: 9 months and up
Makes: 2, 4-5 oz servings
Storage: Can save in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Ingredients will separate, so shake before serving.
Ripe Banana: using a really ripe banana will help give this smoothie some sweetness. If you find that it isn't sweet enough for your toddler or kid, you can add in 1-2 tbsp of honey, maple syrup or agave nectar.
Fun Additions: we love adding in a 1/3 cup of frozen pineapple or mango to this smoothie for a fun twist.
