Notes

  • Variations: Use different nut butters, add protein powder, include greens (spinach or kale), add seeds (chia, flax, or hemp), use different fruits, make it chocolatey with cocoa powder, spice it up with cayenne pepper or ginger, make it vegan with non-dairy milk and yogurt.
  • Sweetness: Adjust the sweetness by reducing the amount of honey or maple syrup, or use a sugar-free sweetener.
  • Make Ahead: You can prepare the smoothie ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. However, it’s best to blend it fresh for the best flavor and texture. If you’re storing it in the refrigerator, give it a good shake or stir before serving.
  • Ingredient Quality: Use ripe or overripe bananas, natural peanut butter (only peanuts and salt), unsweetened milk, plain Greek yogurt, raw honey or pure maple syrup, and pure vanilla extract.
