Super Creamy Peanut Butter Smoothie with Greek Yogurt and Cottage Cheese
A thick and creamy peanut butter smoothie made with banana, Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, and sweetened with a medjool date, blended smooth in minutes for an easy breakfast or snack.
Servings 1 smoothie
Ingredients
- 1 frozen banana
- 2 tbsp natural peanut butter
- 1 pitted medjool date (sub maple syrup or honey)
- ¾ cup milk
- 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup cottage cheese
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder (i used ritual )
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- Ice (as needed for thickness, start with ½ cup.)
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender.
- Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed.
- Add more milk for a thinner smoothie or more ice for a thicker texture.
- Garnish glass with peanut butter drizzle, banana slices and cacao nibs on top
Notes
- Natural peanut butter works best for flavor and consistency; avoid overly dry or heavily sweetened varieties.
- The sweetness will vary depending on the ripeness of your banana, so adjust by adding in another date, maple syrup or honey to taste.
- This smoothie thickens as it sits, especially if made with frozen fruit, so add a splash of milk before serving if needed.
