A quick and easy smoothie bowl combining chocolate and peanut butter flavors, packed with protein and fiber to support weight loss and keep you full longer.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ripe bananas, peeled, sliced and frozen
  • 2 tablespoons (12 g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons (32 g) natural peanut butter
  • 2 scoops (about 60 g) vanilla protein powder (whey or plant-based)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
  • Pinch of cinnamon
  • Ground flaxseed (optional)
  • Sweetener such as honey, maple syrup, or stevia (optional)
  • Toppings: sliced bananas, cacao nibs, chia seeds, granola, fresh berries, chopped nuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Slice and freeze bananas ahead of time for a thick, creamy base.
  2. Add almond milk, protein powder, peanut butter, cocoa powder, and cinnamon to the blender.
  3. Add frozen banana slices to the blender.
  4. Pulse to break down frozen banana, then blend on high for 45 seconds to 1 minute until smooth and creamy. Add more almond milk if needed to reach desired consistency.
  5. Taste and add sweetener if desired, then blend briefly again.
  6. Pour smoothie into a bowl using a spatula to scrape down the sides.
  7. Add desired toppings such as sliced banana, chia seeds, cacao nibs, granola, or fresh berries.

Notes

Use well-frozen bananas for thickness. Blend liquids and protein powder first, then add frozen fruit to avoid blender clogging. If protein powder is gritty, blend it with almond milk first. Adjust thickness by adding more frozen banana or almond milk. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours and stir before eating.
