Ingredients
- 2 large ripe bananas peeled and frozen into chunks
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened natural cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons natural peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup coconut milk or almond milk plus more to thin as necessary
- 1 tbsp maple syrup optional
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a large, high-powered blender and blend on high for 1-2 minutes, or until everything is well combined.
