Ingredients

  • 1 scoop FitAvid Chocolate Whey Protein
  • 2 tbsp natural peanut butter
  • 1 frozen banana
  • ½ cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 tbsp cocoa powder
  • ½ cup ice cubes
  • Toppings: sliced banana, granola, chia seeds, cacao nibs, peanut butter drizzle

Swap Options

  • Nut-free: Use sunflower seed butter instead of peanut butter
  • Lower fat: Use 1 tbsp PB powder instead of peanut butter
  • Extra thick: Add ¼ avocado or 2 tbsp Greek yogurt
  • Sweeter: Add 1 tsp honey or 2-3 pitted dates

Instructions

  1. 1

    Add almond milk and chocolate whey protein to blender

  2. 2

    Add frozen banana, peanut butter, and cocoa powder

  3. 3

    Add ice cubes (this makes it thick enough to eat with a spoon)

  4. 4

    Blend on high for 60 seconds, using tamper if needed to push ingredients down

  5. 5

    Check consistency—should be thick like soft-serve ice cream. Add more ice if too thin

  6. 6

    Pour into bowl and add toppings. Eat immediately with a spoon

Pro Tips

  • Use a FROZEN banana—this is key for the thick, ice cream-like texture
  • Don't add too much liquid or it'll be too thin to eat with a spoon
  • Toppings should be crunchy/textured to contrast the creamy bowl
  • Use a high-powered blender for best results

Frequently Asked Questions

Too much liquid! Use less almond milk (start with ¼ cup) and make sure your banana is fully frozen. Add more ice cubes to thicken it up.

Yes! Replace peanut butter with sunflower seed butter or tahini. Both work great and taste delicious.

Go for crunchy textures to contrast the creamy bowl: granola, cacao nibs, sliced banana, coconut flakes, or a peanut butter drizzle.
