Bananas, nut milk, protein packed peanut butter, healthful flax seeds for beautiful insides and beautiful outsides, and thickening oats.

It’s a smoothie for your health… but it’s also feels like you’re drinking a milkshake.  Drink up and rush out the door.  There’s life to live!

Peanut Butter, Banana, and Oat Milkshake

makes about 2 1/2 cups.  one large or two small portions

Print this Recipe!

2 cups cold almond milk (soy or regular milk would also be delicious)

1 banana, cut into chunks (frozen is ideal) (definitely peel the banana… like, for sure.)

1/4 cup peanut butter

1 heaping teaspoon honey

1 tablespoon flax seeds, ground into meal

2 teaspoon old fashioned oats, ground fine

In a spice grinder, pulverize flax seeds and oats into a fine powder.  My spice grinder is just my coffee grinder really well cleaned out.

In a blender combine almond milk, banana, peanut butter, honey, and ground flax and oats.  Blend until no banana chunks remain, and the mixture is thoroughly incorporated.  Pour into a glass and enjoy immediately.
