Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie

The smoothie making saga continues, and this peanut butter banana smoothie recipe is one that HAD to be shared. I personally love a peanut butter smoothie of any kind, but this particular recipe does have a special place in my heart because it is one of the first smoothie recipes I ever created.

After years of eating a banana with peanut butter almost every morning for breakfast, I decided that I could use a little change of pace. I tested out a few different recipes until I finally perfected this smoothie recipe.

I should add a quick side note and mention that I sometimes refer to this as a peanut butter banana protein shake. The recipe includes protein powder, which is a standard smoothie making practice for me because of the thickness that protein powder adds. Whether you call them smoothies or protein shakes, this recipe is a must try if you’re a fan of peanut butter and banana.

Using Peanut Butter Powder

I am a sucker for creamy peanut butter. I love using it in smoothies, with fruit, on pancakes, you name it. That being said, peanut butter can be a bit high in calories and fat when you use a lot of it. In order to keep my smoothie recipes on the healthier side without sacrificing any delicious peanut buttery flavor, I like to use a combination of real peanut butter and peanut butter powder.

You can usually find it at most grocery stores, but I like to just order it and have it sent directly to my house haha. I personally love this PB Fit Peanut Butter Powder.

Raw Honey VS Imitation Honey

In this particular peanut butter banana smoothie recipe, I use raw honey to sweeten it. That’s mostly due to the fact that I like the flavor combination of peanut butter, banana, and honey.

However, if you are looking for a low sugar or sugar free sweetening option, sugar free imitation honey might be a great option for you. I personally use Honey Tree Imitation Honey all the time for sugar free baking, and it tastes just like the real thing. You can get it HERE.
