Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup chilled brewed coffee (240 ml)
  • 1 medium frozen banana, sliced (about 4 oz / 120 g)
  • 1 scoop chocolate protein powder (about 1 oz / 30 g)
  • 2 tablespoons natural peanut butter (32 g)
  • 1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder (6 g)
  • 1/2 cup milk of choice (120 ml; almond, oat, or dairy)
  • 1 cup ice cubes
  • 1–2 teaspoons maple syrup or honey (optional, to taste)
  • Pinch of salt (about 1/8 teaspoon)
  • Optional add-ins:
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon chia or flax seeds
  • Handful of baby spinach
  • Chocolate chips or cacao nibs (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Brew 1 cup of coffee and chill until cold.
  2. Slice and freeze banana if not already done.
  3. Measure out all ingredients and optional add-ins.
  4. Add to blender in this order: coffee, banana, ice, protein powder, cocoa powder, peanut butter, salt, milk, and any optional add-ins.
  5. Blend on low, then high, for about 60 seconds until ultra-smooth and creamy.
  6. Taste and adjust sweetness or chocolate flavor as needed.
  7. Check texture: add more milk if too thick, more ice or banana if too thin.
  8. Pour into a tall glass, garnish as desired, and serve immediately.

Notes

For a vegan or dairy-free version, use plant-based milk and protein powder. For nut allergies, substitute sunflower seed butter. Adjust sweetness and thickness to taste. Prep dry and frozen ingredients ahead for quick mornings. Garnish with peanut butter drizzle, cocoa powder, or chocolate chips for extra indulgence.
