Ingredients
- 2 cups almond milk
- 2 ripe bananas
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 1/4 cup chocolate protein powder
- 1 tablespoon almond butter
- Ice cubes (optional)
Instructions
- Gather all your ingredients: 2 cups of almond milk, 2 ripe bananas, 1/4 cup of cocoa powder, 1/4 cup of chocolate protein powder, 1 tablespoon of almond butter, and ice cubes (if desired).
- Peel the ripe bananas and break them into smaller pieces. This will make them easier to blend.
- In a blender, combine the almond milk and the banana pieces. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Add the cocoa powder and chocolate protein powder to the blender. These ingredients will give your milkshake its rich chocolate flavor.
- Next, add the tablespoon of almond butter. This will enhance the creaminess and add a nutty flavor to your milkshake.
- If you prefer a colder and thicker milkshake, add a handful of ice cubes to the blender. Blend again until the ice is fully incorporated and the milkshake reaches your desired consistency.
- Taste the milkshake and adjust sweetness if necessary. If you like it sweeter, you can add a drizzle of honey or a sweetener of your choice.
- Once everything is well blended and smooth, pour the healthy double chocolate milkshake into two glasses.
- Optionally, you can garnish your milkshake with a sprinkle of cocoa powder or a few chocolate shavings for an extra touch.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious and nutritious double chocolate milkshake!
Tips
- Choose Ripe Bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter your milkshake will be. Look for bananas with brown spots for maximum flavor!
- Chill Your Ingredients: For an extra refreshing treat, chill your almond milk beforehand or use frozen bananas instead of fresh ones.
- Customize Your Sweetness: If you prefer a sweeter milkshake, consider adding a drizzle of honey or maple syrup. Start with a little and adjust to your taste.
- Add a Protein Boost: To make this milkshake even more filling, consider adding a scoop of your favorite nut butter or a handful of spinach for extra nutrients without compromising the taste.
- Garnish Creatively: Elevate your milkshake presentation by garnishing with a sprinkle of cocoa powder, chocolate shavings, or even a few nuts on top for added texture.
- Blend to Perfection: Make sure to blend your ingredients until they are completely smooth for the best texture. If you like it thicker, add more ice or use less almond milk.
- Serve Immediately: This milkshake is best enjoyed fresh. Serve it right away to savor its creamy, dreamy goodness!
