Ingredients
  

Base Ingredients
  • 1 cup kefir yogurt or kefir milk, probiotic-rich fermented dairy beverage similar to yogurt or buttermilk
  • 150 ml water to adjust texture if needed
  • 2 small ripe bananas use frozen bananas for a thicker smoothie; skip ice if using frozen
  • 2 whole pitted Medjool dates natural sweetness; add more if bananas aren’t ripe
  • 2 tbsp peanut butter creamy, chunky, squeezy peanut butter, or 100% peanuts
  • 2 tbsp powdered peanut butter low-sugar option to avoid empty calories
  • 1 tbsp cocoa powder or cacao powder contains cocoa for rich chocolate flavor
  • 1 tbsp Truvia or sugar/stevia blend for mindful, low-sugar smoothie recipe
  • 5 cubes Ice blend until smooth and creamy texture
Optional Ingredients
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds adds protein, fibre, and omega fatty acids
  • 1 tbsp flax seeds boosts fibre and omega fatty acids
  • 1 tbsp psyllium husk extra fibre and supports gut health
  • 2 tbsp chocolate sauce dessert-style garnish
  • ½ cup crushed chocolate cookie crumbs or graham cracker crumbs layering for smoothie cups
  • Dash vanilla extract balances the tangy kefir taste
  • Pinch of salt enhances peanut butter and chocolate flavors

Equipment

  • High speed blender

Method
 

  1. Add kefir milk or 1 cup Kefir yogurt and 150ml water (if using) to your high speed blender first.
  2. Add 2 pitted dates or 6–8 Medjool dates and blend on high for 30–60 seconds until dates break down.
  3. Add bananas, 3 tbsp peanut butter (or 1 TB creamy peanut butter + 2 TB powdered peanut butter), 1 TB cocoa powder (or 1½ tbsp cocoa/cacao), and 1 cup ice (about 10 ice cubes).
  4. Blend on medium-high until smooth. Stop and scrape the sides if needed. Combine all ingredients, blend together, until smooth. Serve immediately.
  5. Check texture, add more kefir to thin or extra frozen banana to thicken. Divide between two glasses or into mason jars for smoothie cups.
  6. Sensory cues: the smoothie should be creamy, lightly thick, with no big ice chunks and a mild tang from the kefir. If it tastes a bit bitter from cacao, add another date or a little Truvia.
