Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie Recipe

By

This great smoothie will give you enough energy in the morning and satisfy your taste buds too. Chocolate and peanut butter combination makes for remarkable tasting smoothies and bananas will add rich creaminess to them. Even though we use banana in this smoothie, its flavor will be subtle as they are covered by cocoa and peanut butter flavor. Are you counting on calories intake? Then use overripe banana when making smoothies and it will give natural sweetness to the drink thus avoiding sweetener at all.

Recipe for Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie

Below is the recipe for making this delicious chocolate peanut butter smoothie.

Ingredients
  • 2 tbsp peanut butter
  • 1 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1 banana
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 tbsp honey or agave syrup
  • Ice cubes
Directions
  1. Toss milk and banana to the blender pitcher and pulse a few times to break down.
  2. Then add the rest of the ingredients and ice cubes on top of the jar and puree into a smooth and frothy mix.
  3. Pour into a tall glass and enjoy.
Tips

Use frozen banana to get a thick smoothie texture. To freeze the banana yourself, peel, dice and freeze them for at least 2 hours before making smoothies. If you want a vegan smoothie, then almond milk is a good substitute for dairy milk in this smoothie.

This is definitely a delicious treat after a hard day or an energy booster to start with :)
