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
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.

ahhh!!! this looks amazing! I’m so sad that I don’t have all the ingredients at this moment, because I want to make it right now. but since I don’t I guess I will have to go to the store and buy them.

I feel like you are the queen of milkshakes.

Joy! You can try it out next time with dulce de leche instead of peanut butter. It works perfectly with the banana! Hello from Argentina!

I have something very similar for breakfast every day: soy milk + oats + ground flaxseed + frozen fruit (mango or berries).
The frozen fruit gives it a smoothie consistency and ground flaxseed is better than whole because your body is better able to digest it.

I wish I had one of these right now – sounds delicious!

Just made this for breakfast today. Delicious!! I did have to replace the PB with Nutella (how we ran out of PB I’m not sure, but…). This was a great way to start a crazy Tuesday!! Thanks for another amazing recipe!

I love to make something very similar to this for breakfast (especially in the summer). You really should try soaking the oats and flax in the almond milk overnight; it makes the smoothie so much smoother!
