- 3 Bananas (frozen)
- 6 Medjool Dates (pitted and chopped)
- 2 Scoops Chocolate Protein Powder
- 2 Tbsp Cocoa Powder (unsweetened)
- 4 Tbsp Peanut Butter
- ½ Cup Greek Yogurt
- 2 Cups Ice Cubes
- 2 Cups Almond Milk
Prepare Ingredients: Ensure the bananas are peeled, sliced, and frozen beforehand. Pit and chop the Medjool dates into smaller pieces for easier blending.
Combine Ingredients: In a high-powered blender, add the frozen bananas, chopped Medjool dates, and chocolate protein powder. Sprinkle in the unsweetened cocoa powder. Spoon in the peanut butter and Greek yogurt. Pour in the almond milk to help with blending and provide a smooth consistency.
Blend: Add the ice cubes to the blender. This will chill the smoothie and give it a thick, refreshing texture. Blend on high until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. Pause to scrape down the sides if necessary and ensure everything is well combined.
Serve: Pour the smoothie into glasses and enjoy immediately. For a decorative touch, top with a sprinkle of cocoa powder or a few banana slices.
