Ingredients
INGREDIENTS
- 2 ripe bananas
- 2 cups almond milk
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon almond butter
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
- Ice cubes (optional)
Instructions
- Peel and slice the bananas.
- In a blender, combine the sliced bananas, almond milk, vanilla extract, almond butter, and honey or maple syrup if using.
- Blend until smooth and creamy, adding ice cubes for a chilled shake if desired.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or flavor, adding more honey or cinnamon if preferred.
- Pour into glasses and serve immediately.
Notes
Tip: For a vegan option, use maple syrup instead of honey.
For the best flavor, use a high-quality vanilla extract and almond milk. If you prefer a thicker shake, add more banana or a few ice cubes to achieve your desired consistency. This shake can also be easily customized: try adding a scoop of your favorite protein powder for an extra boost, or blend in some spinach for a green nutrient punch!
Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to a day, but the shake is best enjoyed fresh. Top with sliced almonds or a sprinkle of cinnamon for added flair.
