Instructions:

- Slice the banana: Peel and cut the banana into slices.
2. Melt the Coconut Oil:
- Place the coconut oil in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in short intervals (about 10-15 seconds) until fully melted. Alternatively, melt it in a small saucepan over low heat.
3. Combine Ingredients in Blender:

4. Blend Until Smooth:
- Start blending on a low setting and gradually increase to high. Blend until all the ingredients are fully combined and the smoothie reaches a smooth, creamy consistency.
5. Taste and Adjust:
- Taste the smoothie and adjust the spices or sweetness if necessary. For additional sweetness, you can add a touch of honey or a couple of pitted dates.
6. Serve:

7. Enjoy:
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious and nutritious orange banana smoothie!

Tips:

- For a thicker smoothie, freeze the banana and orange slices beforehand.

- Ensure the coconut oil is in liquid form to blend smoothly; if solid, gently melt it before adding.

- Adjust the spices according to your taste preference if you want a more pronounced or subtle flavor.

- If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more almond milk until you reach the desired consistency.

- For added nutritional benefits, sprinkle some chia seeds or oats over the top before serving.
