Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large bananas, sliced and frozen overnight (about 9 oz)
  • 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter (about 1 oz)
  • 1/2 cup milk of choice (dairy, almond, oat, or soy)
  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt (or coconut yogurt for dairy-free)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/4 cup granola
  • 2 tablespoons chopped peanuts
  • 1/2 fresh banana, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds
  • Drizzle of peanut butter (optional, for topping)

Instructions

  1. Slice 2 large bananas and freeze them overnight. If you forget, add a handful of ice cubes to your mix.
  2. Measure out peanut butter, milk, Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, and vanilla extract.
  3. In a high-speed blender or food processor, combine frozen banana slices, peanut butter, milk, Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
  4. Blend on high for 1-2 minutes, scraping down the sides as needed, until thick, creamy, and smooth. If too thick, add more milk one tablespoon at a time. If too thin, add ice cubes or extra banana.
  5. Spoon the mixture into a bowl and swirl gently with the back of your spoon.
  6. Top with granola, chopped peanuts, sliced banana, chia seeds, and a drizzle of peanut butter.
  7. Serve immediately while the base is thick and toppings are crunchy.

Notes

Use fully ripe bananas for best sweetness and creaminess. Freeze banana slices flat to avoid clumping. Start with less milk and add more as needed for desired thickness. Customize toppings to your taste—try berries, cacao nibs, coconut flakes, or chocolate chips. For vegan, use plant-based yogurt and maple syrup. For nut-free, use sunflower seed butter and seed-based granola.
