Chocolate peanut butter smoothie

Thick and creamy, this chocolate-peanut butter smoothie from Hawaiian chef Brandon Baptiste may be easy to make, but the result is wonderfully complex.

Cacao nibs — crushed, roasted cocoa beans — give this smoothie an extra rich chocolate flavor and adds a bit of chocolate-chip-like texture (without the added sugar). Although cacao nibs may sound like a specialty item, they’re commonly available at Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, Target and other chain grocery stores.

  • 1 1/2 cups oat milk
  • 2 cups banana, sliced
  • 2 Tbsp natural, smooth peanut butter

Add all ingredients to the container of an electric blender. Cover and blend on high for 1 to 2 minutes.
