Course: Dessert 

Yield: 2 Servings

Calories: 157 kcal

Ingredients

• 2 bananas peeled and frozen
• 1 tablespoon peanut butter
• 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
• 1-4 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk

PRO TIP: This recipe works best with bananas that have ripened to the point where they have little black spots appearing. Bananas have various stages or ripeness and become sweeter as they progress, with a less pronounced banana flavor.

Instructions

1. Cut the frozen bananas into chunks and put them in a food processor or heavy duty blender (or a Yonanas Machine).
2. Blend until smooth.
3. Add in the desired flavor (in this case peanut butter and cocoa powder), and blend until everything is incorporated and smooth.
   4. Add almond milk 1/2 to 1 tablespoon at a time to aid in blending and make smooth.
