Peanut Butter Breakfast Shake
There’s nothing I love more than an easy breakfast shake that could easily double as a decadent dessert. This thick and creamy chocolate peanut butter breakfast shake ——-> TOTAL BREAKFAST BABE. It’s loaded with all of the good things (protein packed peanut butter, sweet and natural honey, cocoa powder, almond milk, and frozen bananas) and tastes just like a morning milkshake. A healthy and delicious shake… Crazy, right?
Crazy Awesome!
I used almond milk and peanut butter in this smoothie, but you could totally use cow’s milk or even almond butter if that’s what you’ve got in your fridge. So… options 😉
One note: If you’re watching those nasty little things called calories, using almond milk (unsweetened) is a great way to shave some off! A whole cup is only like 30 calories, and – in my opinion – is very tasty! One of my fabulous readers reported back that she made this with chocolate almond milk, and I have a feeling that would be world rocking as well!
Next time you’re craving a lil’ PB + Chocolate loving, give this decadent thick and creamy chocolate peanut butter breakfast shake a swirl. It only takes 30 seconds in the blender… and you’re going to like it-like it-love it. I promise. xoxo
I use my beloved Vitamix blender to make this smoothie and if you’re in the market for a new machine, I 100% recommend this one! It’s an investment, but worth every penny if you blend as much as I do 😉

i tried this as the recipe look so simple. I must say I used 2% milk and ice as my banana was not frozen. I also half the recipe. My was it delicious will definitely be a regular drink for me also @ 376 cals you can’t go wrong.

I faithfully have a similar shake for breakfast every morning, except I actually add a handful of fresh spinach

Jannel says
Just tried this after finding it on Pinterest, it is AMAZING! I didn’t freeze my bananas ahead of time so used ice and it came out great. Going to freeze my bananas for tomorrow mornings breakfast. 🙂
bakerbynature says
Hi Jannel. So happy you found me (and this shake!) via Pinterest 🙂 Thank you for your quick feedback! The ice trick is great to know.

Can you use chocolate protein powder instead of cocoa powder?
bakerbynature says
Hey Kyla! While I’ve never tried it myself, I think it should work OK 🙂
Susannah says
im drinking it right now–fantastic! I forgot to freeze my bananas, so I just added a few ice cubes. Wonderful! TFS!
bakerbynature says
Awesome! Great tip about the ice cubes 🙂 Thanks Susannah!
Tina@GottaRunNow says
I make something similar to this for dessert all of the time because it’s so good! I use regular milk and omit the honey.
Kristie says
I’m about to make this delicious smoothie, but realized I forgot to freeze my bananas. Could I still use 2 & just put in some ice or just use the 2 bananas & it will still be okay?
bakerbynature says
Hi Krisite. Yes, but just take into consideration the texture will be a little different than the original recipe 😉 I think it will still be delicious! xoxo
katie says
I make these after a workout and omit the honey and use chocolate protein powder
bakerbynature says
Oooh that sounds awesome! Thanks for sharing your unique spin on the recipe, Katie 🙂
