Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based) any kind you prefer
  • 2 tablespoons peanut butter smooth or crunchy
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt for creaminess and protein
  • 1 large ripe banana adds sweetness and thickness
  • 0.5 cup frozen berries strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional) for added warmth

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring cups and spoons

Method
 

  1. Measure out the milk and pour it into your blender.
  2. Add the peanut butter to the blender, letting it sit for a moment to soften slightly, which helps it blend more smoothly.
  3. Scoop in the Greek yogurt, which will give the smoothie a creamy texture and boost the protein content.
  4. Peel the ripe banana and break it into chunks before adding it to the blender for sweetness and thickness.
  5. Toss in the frozen berries, which will add vibrant color, tartness, and a cooling chill.
  6. If using, sprinkle in the cinnamon for a warm, aromatic flavor.
  7. Secure the lid tightly on your blender and blend on high until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and free of lumps, about 30-45 seconds.
  8. Stop the blender and taste the smoothie; if needed, add a little more milk to thin it out or more berries for extra flavor, then blend again briefly.
  9. Pour the smoothie into glasses and serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
  10. Enjoy your velvety, nourishing peanut butter smoothie — a perfect blend of creamy richness and fruity freshness!
