Ingredients
1 tablespoon raw almond butter
1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk
2 frozen bananas
1 teaspoon chia seeds
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
Add the almond butter, unsweetened vanilla almond milk, frozen bananas, chia seeds, and vanilla extract to your blender.
Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy, about 30 seconds to 1 minute, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed.
If you prefer a thinner, icier texture, add a handful of ice cubes and blend briefly until incorporated.
Pour into a tall glass and enjoy immediately while cold.
Comments
Every ingredient is a standard shelf find at any Charlotte chain—almond butter and almond milk are ubiquitous, bananas are always cheap, and chia seeds are stocked at Harris Teeter, Kroger, and Walmart. The five minutes is honest; no prep beyond measuring and blending. Cost per serving runs around $2.50–$3.00 depending on almond butter quality, and the banana is the driver of that reasonable price. This is a solo breakfast, not a family meal, and it does not reheat, but it's fast enough to make fresh on a weekday morning without stress.
