Dates & Banana Milkshake

Dates & Banana Milkshake vegetarian recipe

Whip up a sweet, thick dates and banana milkshake. It's so easy and great for a fast breakfast or a filling snack.

Ingredients

  • 4 large bananas, ripe
  • 12 dates, pitted
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 8 ice cubes
  • 2 tablespoons honey (optional)

Instructions

  1. Peel the 4 ripe bananas and break them into smaller pieces.
  2. Carefully pit the 12 dates if they are not already pitted. You can slice them in half lengthwise to remove the pit.
  3. Place the peeled banana pieces, pitted dates, 2 cups of whole milk, and 0.5 teaspoon of vanilla extract into a high-speed blender.
  4. Add 8 ice cubes to the blender. If you desire a sweeter milkshake, add 2 tablespoons of honey at this step.
  5. Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy, with no date pieces visible. Scrape down the sides of the blender with a spatula if necessary to ensure everything is incorporated.
  6. Pour the dates and banana milkshake evenly into four glasses and serve immediately.
