Ingredients
Base Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas, peeled and frozen
- 2 tbsp creamy peanut butter
- 1/4 cup nondairy milk (such as almond or coconut)
Optional Ingredients
- 2 tbsp flaxseed meal
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Add Ingredients to Blender: Place the frozen ripe bananas, creamy peanut butter, nondairy milk, and if using, flaxseed meal and vanilla extract into your blender.
- Blend Until Smooth: Blend the mixture until it becomes smooth and creamy. Adjust the liquid as needed to achieve your preferred consistency. Use less liquid for a thicker, creamier smoothie bowl, and more for a thinner texture. High-powered blenders may not require any liquid.
- Serve: Transfer the smoothie to a bowl. Add your choice of toppings such as fresh fruit, nuts, or seeds, and enjoy with a spoon.
Notes
- Use only frozen ripe bananas for the best texture and natural sweetness. Ensure the bananas have yellow skins with brown spots before freezing.
- Freeze peeled bananas in a ziplock bag or airtight container; they stay fresh for up to one month.
- Adjust liquid quantity carefully – less liquid leads to a creamier texture ideal for a smoothie bowl.
- Optional flaxseed meal adds fiber and nutrients but can be omitted.
