  • 1 Cup unsweetened almond milk, coconut milk, skim milk, or cow’s milk

  • 1 tbsp peanut butter

Notes

*Thickness: keep in mind that the frozen bananas are going to make for a thicker shake. If you want to make your smoothies even thicker than that, just add some ice cubes, and if you want to thin it out a little bit more, all you have to do is add a little more almond milk.

*Bananas:

  • Personally, we like using frozen bananas instead of fresh bananas with this recipe.
  • Fresh bananas add a really nice smooth, and creamy texture to your smoothie, and that is enhanced even further when you use frozen bananas.
  • Here’s what we recommend doing. First, go out and make sure that you buy some healthy looking bananas. With a little bit of brown on the peel is usually when they are best for flavoring your smoothie.
