Why I love this recipe:
My friend shared the most amazing protein shake with me last year and it became an obsession. Her recipe was inspired by a protein shake from Lillie’s Eats and Treats. I started making my own much simplified version and, months later, it’s still one of my daily cravings!
Healthy – High in protein, and filled satiating ingredients that will leave you feeling satisfied. Tasty – This seriously could pass for a chocolate milkshake. I love to enjoy it in the evenings as a dessert and it satisfies my sweet tooth every time! Quick – All you need is 5 minutes for this chocolate banana protein shake! Perfect for breakfast, post-workout snack, dessert, or even a snack on the go!
Ingredients Needed:
Unsweetened Almond Milk Chocolate Protein Powder: Your favorite kind (we like Clean Simple Eats). Cocoa Powder: Any unsweetened cocoa powder will work, but the darker the richer. I’ve loved this brand. Powdered Peanut Butter: We love PB Fit. Frozen Banana Ice
How to make a Chocolate Protein Shake:
Blend: Add protein powder, cocoa powder, almond milk, banana, and ice, to a blender and blend until smooth. Add Toppings: Pour into cup and use a spoon to stir in peanut butter powder. Optional: Stir in other mix-ins—my favorites are Rice Krispies cereal, cacao nibs and a sprinkle of flake salt. Stir and enjoy this chocolate peanut butter protein shake. Milkshake Cup and Spoon: My friend served her shake in a stainless steel milkshake cup, with long milkshake spoons, and it made them so fun to eat–like enjoying a true chocolate milkshake. I went and immediately bought my own.
Recipe Variations:
Protein Powder: We like Clean Simple Eats. Use your favorite brand. Nut-Free: Use oat milk or soy milk and omit the peanut butter powder. Toppings: Feel free to top with a sliced banana, a little whipped cream, or your favorite toppings!
