Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie
This chocolate peanut butter banana smoothie is one of my favorite smoothies to make when I want something quick, satisfying, and chocolatey. It’s rich, creamy, and uses real ingredients I usually have on hand. I love this as a midday pick-me-up or when I need something that feels more like a treat but still includes protein and fiber.
Why I Love This Smoothie
- Naturally creamy with no added sugars
- A simple way to enjoy a chocolate + peanut butter combo
- Easy to customize based on what’s in your pantry
Ingredients
- 1 frozen banana (or sub frozen cauliflower for a lower-sugar option)
- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder (or unflavored collagen + 1 tbsp cocoa powder)
- 1 tbsp PB2 or natural peanut butter
- ½ cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tbsp chia seeds or ground flaxseed
- Ice cubes
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a blender.
- Blend on high until smooth.
- Adjust thickness with extra ice or milk if needed.
- Serve right away.
Optional Swaps & Additions
- Use oat milk or whole milk instead of almond
- Add a handful of spinach (you won’t taste it!)
- Skip banana and try ½ cup frozen zucchini or avocado for a different texture
My Notes
This recipe works well for me when I need a more filling smoothie. While it’s not a medical or nutrition recommendation, I find the combination of protein and fiber helps me stay full between meals. Your experience may vary, so feel free to adjust it to your taste and dietary needs.
