Make this quick, creamy peanut butter banana smoothie for a high-protein breakfast or post-workout recovery drink. It uses simple ingredients and tastes like a treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large frozen bananas, broken into chunks
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
  • 1 scoop vanilla or unflavored protein powder
  • 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3–4 ice cubes (optional, for extra thickness)

Instructions

  1. Place the frozen banana chunks, almond milk, peanut butter, protein powder, flaxseed, and vanilla extract into your blender.
  2. Add the ice cubes if you prefer a thicker consistency.
  3. Secure the lid and blend on low speed initially, gradually increasing to high speed.
  4. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides if needed.
  5. If the smoothie is too thick, add a splash more milk and blend again briefly.
  6. Pour the smoothie into a glass and serve immediately.

Notes

  • For a lower sugar option, use unsweetened protein powder and ensure your milk has no added sugar.
  • If you do not have frozen bananas, use fresh bananas and add 1 cup of ice for a cold, thick result.
  • This recipe works well as a smoothie bowl base; reduce the milk to 1/4 cup for a very thick texture.
