Peanut Butter Berry Smoothie (Printable)

A creamy blend of peanut butter, mixed berries, and banana — protein-rich and ready in 5 minutes.

# What You'll Need:

01 - 1 cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen — strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)

02 - 1 ripe banana

03 - 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)

04 - 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (or non-dairy alternative)

05 - 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter

06 - 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, to taste)

07 - 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

08 - Ice cubes (optional, for a thicker consistency)

01 - Place the mixed berries, banana, almond milk, Greek yogurt, and peanut butter into the blender jar.

02 - If using, add honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a handful of ice cubes for a thicker, sweeter smoothie.

03 - Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the blender as needed.

04 - Taste the smoothie and adjust by adding more honey for sweetness, a splash of milk to thin, or extra ice to thicken.

05 - Pour into glasses and serve immediately while cold.

01 -

It tastes like a peanut butter milkshake but fuels you like a proper breakfast with protein and real fruit.
Frozen berries mean you never have to wait for anything to ripen or worry about wasting fresh produce.

02 -

Blending too long can actually warm the smoothie slightly because the motor generates heat, so stick to about sixty seconds.
Frozen bananas make an enormous difference in creaminess if you remember to peel and chop them before freezing.

03 -

Freeze your berries on a sheet pan first so they do not clump into an unblendable brick in the bag.
A tablespoon of chia seeds blended in adds omega threes and keeps you full longer without changing the taste.
