Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Begin by thoroughly washing your peaches.
- Using a knife and cutting board, pit the peaches and slice them into smaller pieces to make blending easier.
- If you prefer a smoother texture, you can pre-soak the chia seeds. In a large bowl, combine the chia seeds with half a cup of water. Stir well and let them sit for about 10-15 minutes until they form a gel-like consistency. This step is optional but recommended for an even smoother smoothie.
- In your blender, add 1 cup of coconut milk and 1 cup of water.
- Next, add the sliced peaches.
- If you soaked your chia seeds, add the entire mixture to the blender. If not, add the dry chia seeds directly.
- Carefully separate the egg whites from the yolks if using fresh eggs, or measure out the required amount if using pasteurized egg whites from a carton. Add the egg whites to the blender.
- Measure out 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and add it to the blender. This adds a bright, tangy flavor and helps balance the sweetness of the peaches.
- Secure the lid on your blender and blend the mixture on high speed until it is completely smooth. This may take about 1-2 minutes, depending on the power of your blender.
- If the smoothie is too thick for your liking, add a bit more water or coconut milk and blend again until you reach the desired consistency.
- Pour the smoothie into glasses and serve immediately. You can garnish with a sprinkle of chia seeds or a slice of peach if desired.
- Sip and enjoy your refreshing Coconut Peach Smoothie with Chia Seeds and Lemon Juice!
Tips:
- For a thicker consistency, try freezing the peaches beforehand.
- You can substitute fresh peaches with frozen ones if they are not in season.
- Adjust the amount of chia seeds according to your preference for texture.
- Add a bit of honey or agave syrup if you prefer a sweeter smoothie.
- Blend the chia seeds with the liquid first to allow them to hydrate and swell for a smoother consistency.
