Peanut Butter Green Protein Smoothie
A creamy peanut butter green protein smoothie made with spinach, frozen cauliflower, and banana. Nutrient-dense with a rich peanut butter flavor that feels like a treat. Naturally sweetened, dairy-free, and ready in five minutes.
Servings: 1 smoothie
Equipment
- high speed blender
- measuring cups and spoons
Ingredients
- 1 cup non-dairy milk
- 1 frozen banana
- ½ cup frozen cauliflower
- 1 handful fresh spinach or kale equivalent to ¼ cup
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
- 2 tablespoons creamy, natural peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon hemp seeds
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender and blend until completely smooth and creamy, about 30–60 seconds. Peanut butter can stick to the sides, so scrape down the blender if needed and blend again. Protein powder thickness varies, so you may need an extra splash of milk to blend smoothly.
Notes
*an additional splash of milk may be needed depending on the texture of your protein powder. Adjust as needed.
**Uses extremely ripe bananas. If you don't have any frozen bananas on hand, add an additional handful of frozen cauliflower or a handful of ice. This helps the smoothie get nice and cold.
For a sweeter smoothie, add 2 pitted dates or a tablespoon of maple syrup.
