Ingredients to make a Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie:

Fresh or frozen bananas
Plant based milk (or preferred milk), I used unsweetened almond milk
Cocoa powder (dutch processed)
Peanut butter, I used natural pb (the one that separates and is made with just peanuts)
Vanilla extract
Protein powder, I use collagen but you can skip if you’d like

Extras:

Chia seeds (I’d use 1 tsp)
Flax seed (1 tsp)
Granola for topping
Cacao Nibs

Which milk is good for a Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup smoothie?

My go-to milk for smoothies is always plant based. I find that unsweetened almond milk works best and adds a slight nutty taste that won’t overpower your smoothie. I’ve also been loving oat milk with my smoothies, but keep in mind it adds a few extra carbs (if that’s of concern). Since this smoothie includes bananas, I’d suggest sticking to nut milks over oat and dairy.

Which peanut butter is good for a Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup smoothie?

I love using all-natural peanut butter in our smoothies, usually the creamy and drippy kind. I like that the ingredients are simply peanuts and salt.
