Instructions

Add the milk to a high-speed blender first.
Add the frozen banana, chia seeds, peanut butter, honey or maple syrup, vanilla extract, and fine sea salt.
Add the ice cubes.
Blend on low for 10 seconds, then increase to high and blend for 35–50 seconds, until completely smooth.
Check consistency. Blend in 1–2 tablespoons additional milk if too thick, or a few extra ice cubes or frozen fruit if too thin.
Pour into a 16-ounce glass and serve immediately.

Tips

Use natural peanut butter without added sugar for a more wholesome flavor. To make it vegan, substitute milk with almond or oat milk and honey with maple syrup.
