Silken tofu (or Japanese tofu) is very soft and smooth and will fall apart easily when handled. Silken tofu can be used for making savory dishes like sesame ginger tofu or in desserts like this tofu chocolate mousse.

Milk - we used our homemade soy milk, but you can use other plant milk like; coconut milk, almond milk, or dairy milk if you prefer. You will need about ½ cup soy for a single serving.

Banana - Use a ripe banana for natural sweetness.

Strawberries - we used frozen strawberries, but you could also use fresh strawberries.

Sweetener (optional) - use a sweetener of your choice, such as white granulated sugar or honey. Or make it vegan by using maple syrup, monk fruit sugar, or beet sugar.

Equipment

You will need a high-speed blender or food processor to make this smoothie.

Instructions

This strawberry banana smoothie is very easy to make - all you need to do is place all the ingredients into a food processor, blend until smooth, and serve immediately.

Recipe Tips

Use frozen banana - slice the banana the night before and freeze to use the next day. Freezing the bananas and using frozen berries makes the smoothie thick and well chilled.

Use ice cubes - if you don't want to freeze the banana or are using fresh berries, you can cool the smoothie down by blending in 3-4 ice cubes.

Serving Size

This recipe makes a single serving of about 390 ml (about 1 and ¾ cups).

Calories Per Serve

There are 218 calories per serving in this tofu fruit smoothie.

Substitutions

Use applesauce - If you don't like the taste and texture of bananas, use apple sauce. When we make smoothies with apple sauce, we make unsweetened apple sauce using sweet apples, but you can also use sweetened apple sauce.

If using sweetened applesauce, reduce the sweetener you use because the smoothie could end up being too sweet.

Variations

You can easily customize this strawberry tofu smoothie by adding other flavors you could:

  • Blend in 1 - 2 teaspoons of almond butter or more if you prefer a stronger almond flavor.
  • Give it a hint of vanilla by adding ½ a teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  • Use a different berry like blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries instead of strawberries.
  • Add a hint of mint by blending in a few fresh mint leaves.

FAQ

Can you freeze silken tofu for smoothies?

Yes, you can freeze silken tofu for smoothies. Before freezing, cut the silken tofu into small pieces about the size of ice cubes.

Arrange these on a tray in a single layer and not touching, and freeze. Transfer the frozen to a freezer bag or sealed container.

When making smoothies, blend the frozen silken tofu cubes in with the other ingredients.

Can you taste tofu in a smoothie?

Tofu has a fairly neutral flavor, and you won't even notice it in a smoothie.
