Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Smoothie Bowl
Deliciously creamy and ready to go in just a few short minutes!
Ingredients
- 2/3 to 3/4 cup plant-based milk soy, almond, etc
- 1 to 1 1/2 large very ripe peeled and sliced frozen banana
- 1 scoop or serving plant-based chocolate protein powder
- 2 tablespoons peanut flour or peanut butter*
- 1 cup ice
- Toppings as desired*
Instructions
- Add all ingredients except ice to the pitcher of a blender in the order listed. I start with about 2/3 cup milk, blend and add more liquid as needed. I also use a combination of plant-based milk and water. Blend, scrape sides of blender, add a little more liquid and blend again.
- Add about 1 cup ice before adding more liquid. Blend again and then add additional liquid, as needed, about 1 to 2 tablespoons at a time. Be careful not to go overboard! Blend extra liquid in and until smooth and of desired consistency.
- Transfer blended mixture to a large bowl and add all of your favorite toppings. Enjoy!
Notes
*I have successfully made this smoothie bowl without any peanut flour or peanut butter.
*If your protein powder is not very chocolate-y or you only have vanilla on-hand, consider adding about 2 teaspoons unsweetened cocoa powder.
*Nutritional information can vary quite a bit, depending on the brand of ingredients used. To calculate nutritional facts included here, I used a banana that was 109 grams, 2/3 cup Silk Unsweetened Cashew Milk, Nuzest Rich Chocolate Protein Powder (paleo-friendly) and 2 tablespoons Peanut Butter & Co. vanilla powdered peanut butter. Toppings not included. *Optional topping ideas: shredded coconut, sliced banana, blueberries, granola, cereal, peanut butter and/or cookies.
