Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie
A thick, creamy, healthy peanut butter banana smoothie with a hint of cinnamon and nutmeg. Naturally dairy-free, and ready in just 5 minutes.
Ingredients
- ½ cup unsweetened dairy-free milk
- 2 tablespoon creamy or chunky peanut butter
- ¼ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon whole or ground flaxseeds
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- ⅛ teaspoon nutmeg
- 2 frozen, ripe bananas if using fresh, add ice, see Notes
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup Or agave, optional, adjust to taste
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to the blender in the order listed: milk, peanut butter, maple syrup, vanilla, flaxseeds, cinnamon, nutmeg, then frozen banana.
- Blend on low, then increase to high until thick and smooth.
- Serve immediately for the freshest taste and creamiest texture.
Notes
- Use fully frozen, spotty, ripe bananas. This gives the smoothie its thick, milkshake-style texture without ice or yogurt.
- Only add ice if using fresh ripe bananas. Ice will thin the flavor and change the texture slightly.
- Start with the milk amount listed. Add more 1–2 tablespoons at a time if needed to loosen the blend.
- Adjust cinnamon and nutmeg to taste.
- Adjust the maple syrup based on your preferred sweetness level.
