Looking for a healthy smoothie recipe? This pineapple smoothie recipe has fresh frozen fruit and easy add-ins that make a delicious and irresistible tropical drink. A frozen pineapple banana smoothie recipe is a perfect breakfast drink or healthy snack.

Ingredients Needed

Pineapple: I love buying frozen pineapple chunks, or you can slice a fresh pineapple and freeze the pieces for at least 2 hours before making your smoothie.
Banana: Make sure your banana is ripe for the best flavor!
Greek yogurt: use your favorite yogurt brand and flavor. I love using Dannon Light + Fit or Chobani Zero Sugar. Yogurt flavors I recommend would be vanilla, coconut, or banana, or dairy-free yogurt.
Honey: agave or maple syrup work fantastic in this smoothie, but you can omit if you prefer the natural sweetness of the fruit.
Milk: We use unsweetened vanilla almond milk but you can use any kind of milk or non-dairy milk.
Cream of coconut: can be found in the mixer aisle with the alcohol. It’s really flavorful and adds a nice coconut flavor to the smoothie. You can omit, but if you do you might want to increase the honey to 2 tablespoons.

How to make a Pineapple Smoothie

Add in cups frozen pineapple chunks, 1 banana, a scoop of greek yogurt, some honey and milk to your blender.
Blend until it’s a smooth liquid, adding a bit more milk as needed for desired consistency. How much liquid you’ll need depends on the blender you’re using – a high-powered blender like Vitamix or KitchenAid will need less.
Garnish with a pineapple slice or serve as is.

Expert Tip

If you decide skip the cream of coconut, add in a few drops of vanilla or coconut extract for taste.
You could also freeze the banana for a thicker texture.
Nondairy coconut milk is a great addition for even more flavor!
Add a handful of kale or make a spinach smoothie with a handful of fresh spinach.

Recipe Notes

Greek Yogurt – use your favorite brand and flavor. I love using flavored yogurt to amp
up the flavor of the smoothie. Vanilla, coconut, banana – any of them would be good.
Just know different brands have different sugar content. I love using Danon Light + Fit or Chobani Zero Sugar.
Cream of Coconut (i.e. CocoReal) can be found in the mixer aisle with the alcohol. It’s
really flavorful and adds a nice coconut flavor to the smoothie. You can omit, but if you do you might want to increase the honey to 2 tablespoons (to taste). You can also
substitute some coconut or vanilla extract (1/4 tsp each).
Use any kind of milk you like. We use unsweetened vanilla almond milk but you can use any nondairy or milk.
Make sure your banana is ripe for best flavor.
If you have a fresh pineapple you can use that, just slice it into chunks and freeze them for 2 hours before making the smoothie. I don’t suggest using canned frozen pineapple.
