CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER BANANA MILKSHAKE

Prep time: 5 mins

Serves:1-2

 

Made of frozen bananas, natural peanut butter, cocoa and a splash of pure maple syrup, this rich, creamy treat is sure to satisfy your sweet tooth, without the sluggish after-effects of a traditional milkshake.

 

Ingredients

·         2 frozen bananas

·         ½ cup almond milk (homemade or store-bought)

·         1 Tablespoon pure maple syrup (optional)

·         2 Tablespoons cocoa powder

·         ¼ cup natural peanut butter

·         Pinch of sea salt

·         1 teaspoon vanilla extract

·         7 ice cubes (about 2 handfuls)

 

Instructions

1.      Throw all of the ingredients into a high-powered blender, and blend until smooth and creamy. (I like to freeze my bananas whole, for easy measuring, then I break them in half when adding them to the blender.

2.      Pour into two glasses and serve immediately!

 

Notes

 

For best results, use a high-speed blender like the Vitamix, which breaks down ice effortlessly. A tradition blender should also work—though, you may need to add a bit more almond milk to facilitate blending.
