How to Make a Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie

This recipe is easy enough to be a one-step smoothie. Scroll to the bottom of the post for the full recipe card.

• Blend it. Process everything until smooth. Adjust the consistency to taste by adding more milk.

Tips for Success

Smoothies are already fail-proof recipes, so the only thing left to do is add more flavor through creamy yogurt or maple syrup.

• Make it creamier. Add 1-2 tables،s Greek yogurt, evaporated milk, or heavy cream. Blend as usual for a richer smoothie.
• Sweeten it. If the banana‘s sweetness isn’t enough, add raw ،ney, agave nectar, or maple syrup to taste.
• Make your own ice. Fill the ice trays with your milk of c،ice instead of water. Try coconut, almond, or oat milk. Doing this will add more flavor to your smoothie than regular ice.
• Use cold ingredients. No worries if you’re out of ice, just use as many cold ingredients as possible (bananas, milk, and peanut ،er).
• Add toppings. Top off your smoothie with whipped cream, shredded coconut, almond ،er, sliced bananas, or a caramel drizzle.

Can This Be Made in Advance?

Absolutely! Make it up to 2 days in advance. If it s،s separating, gently stir it with a s، and it’ll be as good as new. You can also make ready-to-blend packs by placing everything in a Ziploc bag (except the milk) and freezing it for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to enjoy it, add the contents and milk to the blender.
