Ingredients
1 cup fat-free (skim) milk
1/2 cup frozen banana slices
1 tablespoon peanut butter
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Cocoa powder for garnish (optional)
Directions
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water before preparing the shake.
Pour the skim milk into a blender.
Add the frozen banana slices, peanut butter, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract to the blender.
Blend all ingredients on high speed for 1-2 minutes until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy with no visible banana chunks.
Pour the shake into a tall glass and serve immediately.
If desired, dust the top with a light sprinkle of cocoa powder for garnish before serving.
Comments
All ingredients are stocked at every major Charlotte chain, and peanuts are a North Carolina crop, so peanut butter is notably cheap here—expect under $0.75 per serving for the whole shake. The stated 5 minutes is honest; dump everything in a blender and go. It's a single serving that reheats poorly (you won't want a blended drink after it's sat), so it's best made fresh and consumed immediately, which limits leftovers flexibility. The main miss is that one banana and two tablespoons of peanut butter won't sustain a hungry person past mid-morning without additional protein or toast on the side.
