Ingredients
Smoothie Ingredients
- 2 medium ripe bananas, sliced and frozen
- 1 cup 1% milk
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 3 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Blend the ingredients: Place the frozen bananas, milk, ice cubes, peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract into a blender.
- Blend until smooth: Blend on high speed for about 30 to 60 seconds until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Serve the smoothie: Pour the smoothie into two large glasses and serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
- Optional garnish: Drizzle a bit of peanut butter on top or garnish with a banana slice before serving to elevate presentation and taste.
Notes
- Using frozen bananas ensures a thick and creamy texture without needing too much ice.
- Adjust honey amount based on desired sweetness or substitute with maple syrup for a different flavor.
- Use creamy peanut butter for smooth blending; natural peanut butter can also be used but may slightly alter texture.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute 1% milk with almond or oat milk.
- Serve immediately as the smoothie tends to separate or lose its creamy texture over time.
