Print Recipe

A quick and easy smoothie bowl combining creamy vanilla, nutty peanut butter, and protein powder for a satisfying, spoonable breakfast that’s both indulgent and nourishing.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium frozen bananas, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter (creamy or crunchy)
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (about 30 grams)
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla; dairy-free coconut yogurt for vegan option)
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (or as needed)
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed or chia seeds (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Slice the frozen bananas into chunks to help the blender handle them easier.
  2. Place the frozen banana chunks, peanut butter, vanilla protein powder, Greek yogurt, and almond milk into a high-speed blender.
  3. Add vanilla extract, a pinch of salt, and honey or maple syrup if using.
  4. Add ground flaxseed or chia seeds if desired for extra nutrition.
  5. Blend starting on low speed, gradually increasing to high. Pause and scrape down the sides as needed until thick and creamy, about 45–60 seconds.
  6. Adjust thickness by adding almond milk by tablespoons if too thick, or more frozen banana or rolled oats if too thin.
  7. Pour into a serving bowl and add your favorite toppings such as granola, sliced bananas, peanut butter drizzle, or dark chocolate chips.
  8. Serve immediately and enjoy with a spoon.

Notes

Freeze bananas before slicing for best texture. Adjust almond milk quantity to achieve desired thickness. Use natural peanut butter without added sugars or oils for best flavor. Clean blender immediately after use to avoid sticky residue. For vegan option, use dairy-free protein powder and yogurt, and replace honey with maple syrup.
