Ingredients
  

2 tablespoons tahini

1 medium ripe banana, frozen

1 cup almond milk (or any milk of choice)

2 tablespoons pure cocoa powder

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (adjust for sweetness)

1 tablespoon chia seeds

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

A pinch of sea salt

Ice cubes (optional, for a thicker texture)

Instructions
 

Prepare Ingredients: If you haven't already, freeze the banana ahead of time. This will give your smoothie a creamy, ice-cream-like texture.

    Blend Base: In a blender, combine the tahini, frozen banana, almond milk, cocoa powder, honey or maple syrup, chia seeds, vanilla extract, and sea salt. If you prefer a colder, thicker smoothie, add a handful of ice cubes.

      Blend Smooth: Blend on high speed until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is silky smooth. Stop and scrape down the sides if necessary. You may want to add an extra splash of almond milk for a thinner consistency.

        Taste Test: Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness if desired by adding more honey or maple syrup. Blend again briefly to mix.

          Serve: Pour the smoothie into two glasses. You can garnish with a sprinkle of cocoa powder, chia seeds, or a drizzle of tahini for an extra touch.

            Enjoy! Sip your Silky Tahini Chocolate Smoothie immediately for the best flavor and texture!
