Frequently Asked Questions About Peanut Butter Banana Smoothies?
Before I jump into this recipe, I wanted to answer a few questions I received about this delicious peanut butter smoothie.Should I Use Fresh Or Frozen Bananas In This Smoothie Recipe?
For this recipe, I highly recommend freezing the banana ahead of time. If not, you will have to use a cup or so of ice to get that cold smoothie consistency. I’m not saying the smoothie won’t taste good without the frozen bananas frozen but it just won’t be cold or have a thicker smoothie consistency.It’s really up to you!
Do I Have To Use Peanut Butter?
Nope! I used peanut butter because that’s sort of our go-to nut butter in our home but you can actually use any nut butter you like. I bet you this smoothie recipe would taste AMAZING with some almond butter!
You can also swap out the peanut butter for some cashew or sunflower butter.
