Ingredients
Hiland Chocolate Peanut Butter Milk
The star of this smoothie! Hiland Chocolate Peanut Butter Milk gives the smoothie a delicious chocolate and peanut butter flavor and makes the perfect base.
Frozen Banana
A ripe frozen banana adds natural sweetness and makes the smoothie thick and creamy. I recommend using a ripe banana for the best flavor.
Creamy Peanut Butter
Two tablespoons of creamy peanut butter add even more peanut butter flavor and make this smoothie extra rich and satisfying.
Cocoa Powder
Cocoa powder brings in even more chocolate flavor and gives the smoothie that rich, chocolatey taste.
Vanilla Extract
Just a little vanilla helps round out all of the flavors.
Ice
A few ice cubes help make the smoothie cold and refreshing. If your banana is frozen, you only need a few cubes!
How to Make a Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie
This smoothie couldn’t be easier to make!
Add the Hiland Chocolate Peanut Butter Milk, frozen banana, peanut butter, cocoa powder, vanilla extract, and a few ice cubes to a blender.
Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
Pour into a glass and enjoy!
That’s it! You have a delicious chocolate peanut butter smoothie ready in just minutes.
Tips for Making the Best Smoothie
Use a ripe banana. A ripe banana will add natural sweetness and plenty of banana flavor to the smoothie.
Freeze your banana ahead of time. Peel a ripe banana, cut it into chunks, and freeze it in a freezer-safe container or bag. Having frozen bananas ready makes smoothie-making even easier.
Adjust the consistency. If your smoothie is too thick, add a small splash of milk and blend again. If you’d like it thicker, add a few more ice cubes or another piece of frozen banana.
Want even more peanut butter flavor? Add an extra spoonful of peanut butter or drizzle a little peanut butter over the top before serving.
What to Serve with a Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie
This smoothie is delicious on its own, but it can also be paired with breakfast favorites like toast, oatmeal, muffins, or a simple egg breakfast.
It’s also a great afternoon snack when you want something cold, creamy, and chocolatey!
Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie FAQs
Can I use a fresh banana instead of a frozen banana?
Yes! You can use a fresh ripe banana, but the smoothie won’t be quite as thick or cold. If you’re using a fresh banana, add a few extra ice cubes.
Can I make this smoothie ahead of time?
Smoothies are best enjoyed right after blending, but you can make this smoothie ahead of time and keep it refrigerated for a short period. Give it a good stir or shake before enjoying.
Can I add anything else to this smoothie?
Absolutely! Try adding a little extra peanut butter, a sprinkle of cinnamon, or a few chocolate chips for an extra special treat.
