🍌Ingredients
- Banana: Use ripe, frozen banana for natural sweetness and creamy texture.
- Peanut butter: Choose a natural peanut butter for the best flavor.
- Non-dairy milk: I used almond milk, but any plant-based milk, such as cashew milk or oat milk, will work.
- Rolled oats: Make your smoothie more filling.
- Cocoa powder: Use unsweetened cocoa powder for a rich chocolate taste.
- Dates: I used Mazafati dates for their soft, caramel-like sweetness, but Medjool or any soft, plump dates will work just as well.
As always, you can find the full recipe with a list of ingredients with measurements in a printable recipe card at the end of this post.

Blend: Blend until smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides if needed. Pour into a glass and enjoy right away.
📋Substitutions & Variations

- Add seeds: Add a spoonful of chia seeds, ground flaxseeds, or hemp hearts for extra thickness.
