PROTEIN BARS BY OPTIMUM NUTRITION

The Classic Peanut Butter Banana Protein Smoothie

Prep time: 2 minutes | Servings: 1

Ingredients

• 1 scoop (approx. 30g) vanilla or chocolate whey protein powder
• 1 medium banana (frozen is best for a creamy texture!)
• 1 tbsp peanut butter (or almond butter)
• 1 cup (240ml) milk of your choice (dairy, almond, or oat work great)
• 1/2 cup ice cubes
• Optional: A dash of cinnamon or a handful of spinach (you won't even taste the greens!)

Instructions

1. Add the liquids first: Pour your milk into the blender. Adding liquid first prevents the protein powder from getting stuck to the bottom of the blender jug.
2. Add the rest: Drop in the whey protein powder, frozen banana, peanut butter, and ice.
3. Blend: Blend on high for 30 to 45 seconds until completely smooth and creamy.
4. Serve: Pour into a tall glass and enjoy immediately.
