There are far things better than the ol’ peanut butter/banana combo, and when they come together in this 4-ingredient smoothie, it’s definitely heaven in a glass.

4 Ingredients

  • Banana
  • Vanilla Extract
  • Milk- see below for substitution options

Milk Substitutions in Smoothies

Soy milk, almond milk, and Coconut milk make great substitutions for regular milk when making smoothies.

Best Equipment For Making Smoothies

My first suggestion would be to use a NutriBullet.

  • This is the one that I have and it’s super powerful. It allows you to fully extract nutrients because it breaks down pulp, seeds, stalks, and skins so finely that you don’t even realize it’s there.

You can also use a good quality blender.
