Description

Enjoy a delicious and creamy Peanut Butter Cup Smoothie that’s perfect for a quick breakfast or a satisfying snack. This smoothie combines the rich flavors of peanut butter and cocoa powder with the natural sweetness of a frozen banana, all blended smoothly with almond milk and a hint of vanilla. It’s easy to customize with your favorite sweeteners or extra ice for a refreshing treat.


Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 1 medium banana, frozen
  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional Add-ins

  • 1-2 teaspoons maple syrup or honey (optional)
  • 1/2 cup ice (optional)


Instructions

  1. Add Ingredients to Blender: Place the frozen banana, peanut butter, cocoa powder, almond milk, vanilla extract, and optional sweetener into a blender for smooth blending.
  2. Blend Until Smooth: Blend all the ingredients on high speed until the mixture is creamy and smooth, ensuring all elements are well combined.
  3. Add Ice for Thickness: If you prefer a thicker, colder smoothie, add the ice and blend again until incorporated and the desired consistency is reached.
  4. Serve Immediately: Pour the smoothie into a glass and enjoy right away for the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • Using a frozen banana adds natural sweetness and thickness without needing extra sugar.
  • You can substitute almond milk with any milk of your choice such as oat, soy, or dairy milk.
  • Adjust the amount of sweetener based on your taste preferences or skip it entirely for a lower sugar option.
  • For added protein, consider adding a scoop of protein powder or a tablespoon of Greek yogurt.
  • Blend ice last to control the smoothie thickness.
