Peel the banana and break it into smaller chunks for easier blending. Add them to the blender.
Add 2 tablespoons of peanut butter to the blender.
Pour in 1 cup of milk. You can use dairy or any plant-based milk, such as almond, soy, or oat milk.
Scoop 1 cup of plain Greek yogurt into the blender for added creaminess and protein.
If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, drizzle in 1 tablespoon of honey and add 0.5 teaspoon of vanilla extract. These are optional but boost the flavor profile.
Add 4 ice cubes to make your smoothie cold and refreshing.
Blend all the ingredients on high speed for about 30-60 seconds, or until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness or thickness if needed by adding more milk or honey.
Pour the smoothie into two glasses and serve immediately. Enjoy!
