Peanut Butter Chocolate Smoothie
Ok, this smoothie is seriously yum! Who doesn’t love peanut butter? I think peanut butter is an under-used ingredient in a lot of smoothie recipes, so this time I made it the focus. Smoothies are quick, tasty and easy to make, plus you can make them as healthy (or unhealthy) as you’d like.
(I didn’t have any bananas at home, but you could definitely add one to thicken this baby up, oh and feel free to add some greens to this as well!)
Ingredients
- 1 generous dessert spoon of peanut butter (as natural as you can find, my favourite is Pic’s Really Good)
- 1 tsp Maca powder (This is a superfood, great for energy and reproductive health. It’s taste varies between brands, and while I don’t mind it, it’s not for everyone. Fortunately it’s disguised perfectly by peanut butter. You can usually find Maca at health food shops, or online e.g. at Loving Earth.)
- 1/2 – 2/3 cup milk of your choice (e.g. almond, rice or oat)
- 1 date, deseeded and finely chopped
- 1 tsp cocoa powder
- 1 tbsp yoghurt
- 4-6 ice cubes
What next?
Add all ingredients to your blender, blitz until the ice and dates are broken down, pour into glass and enjoy!!
