How to Make a Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie
The thing that is so glorious about his peanut butter banana smoothie recipe is that you literally just throw all of your ingredients into a high-speed blender and mix until smooth.
Ingredients
- Bananas: You can buy frozen bananas at most grocery stores, but if you can’t find them. No worries! You can make your own at home for super cheap.
- Greek yogurt: Greek yogurt is a great addition to all smoothies because it packed with protein and has a slightly tangy flavor. Feel free to use any kind of Greek yogurt such as plain or vanilla.
- Flax seeds: Ground flax is where it’s at when it comes to smoothies because they’re easier to digest that way!
- Almond Milk: This peanut butter banana smoothie recipe calls for unsweetened almond milk, but any kind of milk or liquid will work!
- Vanilla Extract: Don’t have vanilla extract on hand? No worries! You can just nix it 😀
- Peanut Butter: We love using all-natural peanut butter in our smoothies because it’s creamy and has no additives. Our favorite brands include 365 and Smuckers.
Optional Add-Ins
Before you blend away in your blender, you can also add in some delicious add-ins to increase nutrition and/or add more flavor. Here are some suggestions:
- Mini chocolate chips
- Peanuts
- Protein Powder: check out our favorite ones HERE.
- Kale or Spinach
This is one of those smoothies that is best eaten thick and with a spoon. Oh, and with toppings galore. There’s nothing wrong with a handful of mini chocolate chips and a drizzle of fresh peanut butter.

Just gave a try to this smoothie… so delicious!
Very good
Am I the only one that just adds unsalted peanuts to my PB smoothies? It blends into peanut butter anyway and you get to avoid the palm oil and partially hydrogenated vegetable oil without paying a premium for the quality peanut butter
I have to be honest, putting peanut butter in a smoothie did not seem to be a great idea. but it was so amazing! I really loved it. Thank you for sharing!

I know exactly what I’d add into my PB banana smoothie: frozen bananas, crunchy peanut butter or peanut butter powder, vegan protein powder, spinach, flax seeds, cinnamon and almond milk! OMG! I most certainly would make nice cream with this recipe too, or add cacao powder to make a chocolate peanut butter smoothie!
Delish!!
