Chunky Monkey Smoothie with Cacao Nibs

A chunky monkey smoothie made with banana, peanut butter, and cacao nibs for a lighter take on the classic. Creamy, slightly crunchy, and just chocolatey enough without being overly rich.

Equipment

  • high speed blender
  • measuring cups and spoons

Ingredients

  • 1 overly ripe frozen banana
  • ⅔-3/4 cup vanilla almond milk or plant milk of choice
  • 2 heaping tablespoons crunchy peanut butter only peanuts and salt in the ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon cacao nibs

Instructions

  • Add all ingredients to a blender and blend for about 15 seconds, or until smooth and creamy with small bits of cacao nibs throughout. Blend longer for a fully smooth texture.

Notes

I used vanilla almond MALK as it provides a slightly sweet flavor, but any nut milk will work. The amount of milk needed will vary based on the size of your banana and the thickness of your peanut butter. Adjust as needed.
