Instructions

Add vanilla ice cream, whole milk, and pure vanilla extract, malted milk powder, and banana purée to a blender.
Blend for 20–30 seconds until the mixture is thick and smooth. Add 1–2 tbsp milk if the shake is too thick to blend.
Pour the malt into a chilled glass and serve immediately.

Tips

Use fresh ripe bananas blended into purée if banana purée is unavailable. For a thicker shake, slightly reduce milk quantity.
