Peel the banana and slice it into small chunks. Place the chunks in a freezer-safe bag and freeze for at least 2 hours or until solid.
In a blender, start by adding the unsweetened almond milk to the base.
Add the frozen banana slices to the blender with the almond milk.
Spoon in the Greek yogurt, ensuring it is added evenly around the banana slices.
Add the vanilla extract and erythritol sweetener to the mixture in the blender.
Top with ice cubes to give the milkshake a frosty texture.
Blend on high speed for about 1 - 2 minutes, or until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Stop and scrape down the sides of the blender as necessary.
Once blended, taste the milkshake and adjust sweetness if necessary, adding more erythritol to taste.
Pour the milkshake into glasses and serve immediately for best texture and flavor.
