- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup frozen banana slices
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter

Notes
- You can store this smoothie in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours, then stir before serving. It will have more of a protein shake texture than a smoothie.
- Use very ripe bananas for the best flavor.
- Add 2 tablespoons hemp seeds or homemade Protein Powder recipe to make it even more filling.
- Round out the sweetness with a little honey (for kids over age 1), maple syrup, or Date Paste.
- Serve as a stand-alone snack or breakfast, or pair with my Banana Oatmeal Bars, Mini Chocolate Chip Muffins, or a Chewy Granola Bar.
