🥤 Creamy Peanut Butter Honey Smoothie
📝 Description
This Peanut Butter Honey Smoothie is a smooth, indulgent drink with a perfect balance of nutty richness and natural sweetness. The creamy texture comes from ripe banana and milk, while peanut butter adds depth and protein. Honey provides gentle sweetness, and vanilla gives a warm, aromatic finish. Ideal for breakfast, post-workout energy, or a healthy dessert-style drink.
🧾 Ingredients (Serves 1–2)
2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
1 large ripe banana, sliced
1½ cups cold milk (dairy or almond/oat milk)
1–2 tablespoons pure honey (adjust to taste)
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
4–5 ice cubes (optional, for thicker texture)
1 tablespoon chia seeds or flaxseeds (optional, for nutrition)
👩🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
Prepare the Ingredients
Peel and slice the banana for easier blending. Measure all ingredients in advance to ensure smooth preparation.
Add to Blender
Pour the milk into the blender first. Add banana slices, peanut butter, honey, vanilla extract, and seeds (if using).
Blend Until Smooth
Blend on high speed for 30–45 seconds until the smoothie becomes thick and creamy. Add ice cubes if you prefer a colder, milkshake-like consistency.
Taste & Adjust
Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness with extra honey or thin it with a splash of milk if needed.
Serve
Pour into a tall glass. Drizzle honey or peanut butter along the inside of the glass for a decorative swirl, just like the image.
