Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pieces ripe bananas (peeled and frozen)
- 0.5 pieces banana slices (fresh, for garnish)
- 1 cup milk (or plant-based milk of your choice)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 4 pieces ice cubes
- as needed whipped cream (optional)
Instructions
1. Place the peeled, frozen bananas into a blender. If your bananas are very large, you may want to cut them into smaller chunks for easier blending.
2. Add the milk, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and ice cubes to the blender.
3. Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy. If the shake is too thick, add more milk, a splash at a time, until your desired consistency is reached.
4. Taste the shake. If you'd like it sweeter, you can optionally add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup and blend again.
5. Pour the shake into two tall glasses.
6. Garnish with fresh banana slices, a sprinkle of cinnamon, and a dollop of whipped cream if desired.
7. Serve immediately and enjoy your all-banana creation!
