Description

This quick and creamy 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter Smoothie is a delicious and nutritious treat perfect for breakfast or a snack. Combining frozen bananas, peanut butter, and whole milk, it offers a rich, satisfying flavor with a natural sweetness and a boost of protein. Optional add-ins like spinach and cacao nibs enhance its nutritional value or provide texture and extra taste.

Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups frozen banana slices (around 2 bananas)
  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter (chunky or creamy)
  • 2 cups Organic Valley® Whole Milk

Optional Add-Ins

  • ⅓ cup frozen or 1 cup fresh spinach (for a veggie boost)
  • 1 tablespoon cacao nibs (for sweetness and slight crunch)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Ingredients: Gather the frozen banana slices, peanut butter, and whole milk. If using, prepare the optional add-ins like spinach or cacao nibs.
  2. Blend Smoothie: Place the frozen banana slices, peanut butter, and whole milk into a blender. Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
  3. Serve: Pour the smoothie into glasses. For kids, serve 6 to 8 ounces per serving; for adults, 8 to 12 ounces is ideal. This recipe makes about 4 cups in total.
  4. Add Optional Ingredients (Optional): If you want to enhance the smoothie, add fresh or frozen spinach for extra nutrients or cacao nibs for an added crunch and a touch of sweetness. Blend briefly or stir in as preferred.

Notes

  • Use ripe bananas for the best sweetness and flavor.
  • Chunky or creamy peanut butter both work well; choose according to your texture preference.
  • Replace whole milk with any milk substitute for a dairy-free or vegan version (note: this changes nutrition slightly).
  • Adding spinach increases fiber and vitamins without significantly altering taste.
  • Cacao nibs add antioxidants and a subtle chocolate flavor while providing extra texture.
  • For a colder smoothie, add a few ice cubes or use frozen spinach if adding.
