Ingredients

  • 1 frozen banana
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 2 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 scoop chocolate or vanilla protein powder, or ½ cup Greek yogurt
  • 1-2 teaspoons stevia, monk fruit, or erythritol (optional)
  • 3-4 ice cubes
  • 1 tablespoon peanut butter or almond butter (optional)
  • ½ teaspoon non-alcoholic vanilla flavoring (optional)
  • Pinch of salt (optional)

Instructions

  • Remove the frozen banana from the freezer and let it soften for 1-2 minutes.
  • Pour the almond milk into a blender first to reduce strain on blades.
  • Add cocoa powder, protein powder or Greek yogurt, sweetener (if using), non-alcoholic vanilla flavoring, and salt to the blender.
  • Break the banana into chunks and include 3-4 ice cubes (or more for colder texture).
  • Blend on low for 10-15 seconds, then high for 30-45 seconds until smooth and creamy.
  • Taste and adjust sweetness or flavor as desired.
  • Pour into a glass and enjoy immediately or freeze for 10-15 minutes for a denser consistency.

Notes

For a vegan option, use plant-based Greek yogurt and protein powder.
Substitute the coconut oil for added richness if nut butter is used.
This frosty is best consumed immediately but can be stored in the freezer for up to 1 hour. Stir before serving if frozen for more than 15 minutes.
