This smoothie has been one of my favorites for ages! My mom used to make a version of it for us when I was a kid, so it’s got that extra touch of nostalgia for me. We both love the peanut butter and banana combo, and of course, strawberries just take it to the next level.

This thick and deliciously creamy strawberry banana peanut butter smoothie is quick, easy, and packed with nutrients. It can be enjoyed as a healthy breakfast, a filling snack, or on the go. It’s also a kid-friendly fruit smoothie (I absolutely loved it).

Ingredients you’ll need

You only need 4 ingredients to whip up this smoothie, and if you’re anything like me, they’re probably already in your kitchen! It’s seriously the easiest thing to throw together.

• Frozen Strawberries. Use frozen strawberries for a thick, creamy smoothie. They also help sweeten the smoothie and add a vibrant color.
• Frozen Banana: I love using frozen ripe bananas in my smoothies. They make it creamy, adds a velvety texture, and make it more filling.
• Peanut Butter: It adds healthy fats and makes the smoothie even more delicious. Any nut or seed butter works here, like almond butter, cashew butter, or sun butter. Note that the flavor might change.
• Almond Milk: Unsweetened almond milk is one of my favorite liquid base for smoothies. It tastes great, it’s low in calories, and it’s available everywhere. You can use any milk of your choice. Use plant milk (oat, soy, cashew, coconut) to make this smoothie dairy-free and vegan if necessary. Soy milk is great for added protein. If you want to make this smoothie with no milk of any kind, use water instead.

Optional ingredients to make this smoothie even better:

• Chia Seeds: For a boost of healthy fats, omegas, and minerals. They also add fiber and protein, making the smoothie more filling. You can add flax or hemp seeds instead.
• Ground Cinnamon: The addition of cinnamon brings a subtle but noticeable flavor that complements the overall natural sweet taste.

How to make a strawberry banana peanut butter smoothie

It’s super easy! Simply combine all ingredients in a blender, and blend until completely smooth and creamy. Taste the smoothie and add additional milk if it is too thick. And that’s it.

Note that you do not need a high-dollar blender to make this smoothie. If you use a high-powered blender (like Vitamix or Blendtec), your smoothie will have a finer, more even consistency. But you can certainly make this recipe in a regular blender too. I usually use my Nutribullet for individual smoothies, and it works great.

Tips & recipe notes

• Use frozen fruits for a thick, creamy smoothie. If you don’t have them on hand, it’s fine to use fresh fruit instead. You can add ice cubes to make the smoothie chilled.
• Play around with the liquid amount! If your smoothie is too thick, add more milk or water a few tablespoons at a time.
• If you do have a high-speed blender, start on low speed, then gradually increase the speed to high to help blend all ingredients. This is particularly important when using a small amount of liquid.

Variations, additions & swaps

Make your smoothie unique by adding your preferred nutrient boosters and mix-ins. Here are some ideas:

• Easily add more protein to a smoothie by adding 1 scoop of your favorite protein powder, or even some greek yogurt or silken tofu.
• Want more nutrients? Try adding a handful of spinach or kale to it. The taste will be great, but note that the color will change.
• I find this smoothie sweet enough, however, you can sweeten it up by adding maple syrup, honey, or pitted medjool dates.
• You can also add rolled oats for extra fiber.
