The preparedness group I'm in has been sending healthy snack recipes. Here's one we tried yesterday. It was very good. The person who sent it said their family makes it with almond butter, so we'll have to try that next time.
Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Milkshake
2 frozen bananas
¾ c. almond milk (homemade or store-bought)
1 T. pure maple syrup (optional)
2 T. cocoa powder
¼ c. natural peanut butter
pinch of sea salt
1 t. vanilla extract
7 ice cubes (about 2 handfuls)
Throw all of the ingredients into a high-powered blender, and blend until smooth and creamy. (I like to freeze my bananas whole, for easy measuring, then I break them in half when adding them to the blender.) Pour into two glasses and serve immediately!
Notes:
• For best results, use a high-speed blender like the Vitamix, which breaks down ice effortlessly. A traditional blender should also work– though, you may need to add a bit more almond milk to facilitate blending.
