Smoothie Ingredients
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
- 2 cups frozen banana slices (or 2 cups sliced fresh bananas with 4-6 ice cubes)
- 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter (all-natural, unsweetened)
- 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Place the milk, Greek yogurt, frozen banana slices, peanut butter, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract into a high-powered blender.
- Blend Smoothly: Blend all ingredients until smooth and creamy, ensuring there are no chunks of banana or ice.
- Adjust Consistency: If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more milk to thin it out to your preferred consistency. If it is too thin, add a few ice cubes and blend again until thickened.
- Serve: Pour the smoothie into glasses and enjoy immediately for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- Use frozen banana slices for a naturally sweet and thick smoothie texture without needing extra sugar.
- All-natural, unsweetened peanut butter enhances the flavor without added sugar or oils.
- You can substitute milk with any plant-based milk for a dairy-free option.
- Adjust milk amount to control the smoothie thickness according to your preference.
- Adding ice cubes is optional if using fresh bananas to keep the smoothie cold and thick.
