Instructions

Add 1/2 cup whole milk and 2 cups vanilla ice cream to a blender.
Peel and slice the ripe banana and add it to the blender along with 2 tbsp creamy peanut butter and 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract.
Blend on low for 10 seconds, then on medium-high for 20–30 seconds, just until thick and smooth. Avoid overblending.
Check consistency. Add 1 tablespoon of milk at a time if too thick, or 1/4 cup additional ice cream if too thin.
Pour into a chilled 16-ounce glass and top with 2 tbsp whipped cream.
Serve immediately with a wide straw and long spoon.

Tips

Use a very ripe banana for the best natural sweetness and flavor. To make it dairy-free, substitute the ice cream and milk with vegan alternatives.
