🍌 Quick Banana Milkshake 🥤
Ingredients:
2 large ripe bananas, peeled and sliced
1 cup whole milk (or your favorite milk alternative)
1/4 cup vanilla yogurt (plain yogurt works too)
1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
A pinch of ground cinnamon (optional, for warmth)
Whipped cream and additional banana slices (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
Prepare the Bananas: Slice the ripe bananas into chunks for easier blending. If you prefer a colder milkshake, freeze the banana slices for about 30 minutes before blending.
Blend the Base: In a high-powered blender, combine the sliced bananas, milk, yogurt, honey (if using), and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed. For an extra-thick consistency, blend for an additional 30 seconds.
Taste and Adjust: Give the milkshake a taste and adjust sweetness by adding more honey or syrup if desired. Stir in a pinch of cinnamon for a cozy twist.
Serve Immediately: Pour the milkshake into tall glasses and serve right away while it’s thick and cold. If desired, top with whipped cream and fresh banana slices for a finishing touch.
