Ingredients
Base Ingredients
- 1 cup milk of choice (240g)
- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder (30g)
- 6 oz vanilla yogurt or 1 banana (170g)
- Sweetener of choice (to taste)
Optional Add-ins
- 2 tbsp peanut butter or almond butter (optional) (30g)
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Start with cold milk and either vanilla yogurt or one ripe banana. Measure out the chocolate protein powder and optional nut butter if using.
- Blend: Combine all the ingredients in a blender. Blend on high speed until the mixture is thick, smooth, and creamy with no lumps.
- Serve: Pour the shake into a glass and enjoy immediately for the best taste and texture.
- Store Leftovers: If you have any leftovers, store them in a lidded container in the refrigerator and consume within three days for freshness.
Notes
- Using a ripe banana instead of yogurt will give a natural sweetness and make the shake dairy-free if using plant-based milk.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding honey, maple syrup, or your preferred sweetener to taste.
- Peanut or almond butter adds extra protein and healthy fats but is optional based on dietary preferences.
- For a colder shake, add ice cubes or use frozen banana slices.
