I made this smoothie on Saturday and it was so yummy AND healthy AND easy. Even the Food Nazi approved.
Ingredients:
2 whole frozen bananas
1/2 cup milk
1 heaping tbsp peanut butter
1 heaping tbsp Nutella
I kind of hate it when you read a recipe and you can't make it right away. But trust me, the frozen bananas are key. You could add ice to make this thicker, but you really don't need to. Frozen bananas have a great ice cream-like texture. Also you HAVE to wait until they are super super ripe to freeze them. As in they have a bunch of yucky brown spots on the outside. But on the inside they should be fine and they will be really sweet so no extra sugar is required.
Slice frozen bananas.
Add to blender.
Add 1/2 cup milk.
Add 1 heaping tbsp peanut butter. Yum. I love peanut butter.
Add 1 heaping tbsp Nutella.
Blend/puree/liquefy until smooth and blended.
It is the consistency of a thick milkshake so I put it in a bowl for Bobo.
Glass for Gigi (who wouldn't drink it!) But she did ask me to make it yesterday. Guess she wasn't in the mood.
ADub really liked it!
As did Bobo, but he didn't like how cold it made his hands!
How long do you freeze the bananas and also how hard do they have to be?
ReplyDeleteIdeally, I would let them freeze overnight. You want them to be frozen solid.
