Ingredients

  • 2 whole ripe bananas, frozen
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)
  • 2 tablespoons natural peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • to taste toppings: sliced bananas, granola, chia seeds, crushed peanuts, dark chocolate shavings

Instructions

  1. In a blender, combine the frozen bananas, almond milk, peanut butter, cocoa powder, honey or maple syrup (if using), and vanilla extract.
  2. Blend on high until smooth and creamy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides of the blender. Adjust the thickness by adding more milk if necessary.
  3. Once blended to a smooth consistency, pour the smoothie mixture into a bowl.
  4. Create beautiful patterns on top of the smoothie using your toppings: arrange sliced bananas, sprinkle granola, sprinkle chia seeds, and add crushed peanuts.
  5. Finish by adding dark chocolate shavings for an extra touch of decadence.

💡 Chef's Notes

Use a shallow bowl for the smoothie base, and be artistic with your toppings, arranging them in sections for a colorful and appealing look. Serve with a spoon and a sprig of mint for a fresh touch!
