Yes, you can eat a raw plantain in a smoothie, but it may not be as palatable as ripe plantains. Raw plantains are starchy and have a firm texture, which can result in a gritty consistency when blended.

If you choose to use raw plantains, consider pairing them with other sweet fruits to balance the flavor.
