Description

A delicious and nutritious Chocolate Banana Protein Smoothie that provides a delightful boost of energy and flavor.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup oat milk
  • 1 ripe banana, frozen
  • 1 scoop chocolate whey protein
  • 2 tablespoons almond butter
  • 1 tablespoon raw cacao powder
  • 1 teaspoon agave syrup (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
  • 1/2 cup crushed ice

Instructions

  1. Pour the oat milk into your blender.
  2. Add the frozen banana, followed by the chocolate whey protein and almond butter.
  3. Sprinkle in the raw cacao powder, and if you prefer a touch of sweetness, include the agave syrup.
  4. Drizzle in the almond extract for an extra layer of flavor.
  5. Toss in the crushed ice.
  6. Blend everything together on high until you achieve a silky, smooth consistency, which should take around 30-60 seconds.
  7. Once blended, taste and adjust the sweetness if necessary by adding more agave syrup.
  8. Serve the smoothie in a tall glass and savor it right away.

Notes

  • For a creamier texture, consider using two frozen bananas or incorporating a handful of kale for added nutrients without changing the taste.
  • Feel free to replace oat milk with any milk alternative you prefer, such as coconut milk, cashew milk, or traditional dairy milk, to suit your taste.
