Vegan MoFo 6: Chocolate-Peanut Butter Smoothie with Strawberry Creme

Smoothie from aboveAnd so we come to the inevitable (if not enviable) smoothie entry.  The peanut-butter-and-jelly smoothie came in at Numero 7 on – say it with me – 29 Ways to Honor the Glory of Peanut Butter and Jelly.  The original recipe came from Becky Bakes (good thing for me that she also makes smoothies).

You will have extra strawberry creme. I hope this will not prove to be an inconvenience for you.

Description

Drink your PB & J with this cool and creamy vegan smoothie that’s topped with a rich and luscious strawberry creme.


Ingredients

Scale

Smoothie

  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • a couple of ice cubes
  • 1/3 cup Chocolate PB2 powder*
  • 6 oz. plain coconut milk yogurt
  • 2 bananas, cut into pieces and frozen
  • 1 heaping Tbsp. natural peanut butter
  • 2 dates
  • 1/4 tsp. vanilla extract

Strawberry Creme

  • 1/2 cup coconut milk (chilled overnight; full fat, the good stuff at the top of the can)
  • 4 large strawberries cut into chunks
  • 1/4 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 packet crystallized stevia or your sweetener of choice

Instructions

Make the Strawberry Creme

  1. In a food processor, process the strawberries until finely chopped. You’ll have to scrape the sides down several times. Add a tiny bit of water if necessary. Add the remaining ingredients and process until very smooth. Put mixture into the refrigerator while you prepare the smoothies.

Make the Smoothies

  1. Add all of the smoothie ingredients to the blender and process until thick and smooth. Divide between two glasses and top with the strawberry creme.

Notes

  • *Don’t happen to have Chocolate PB2 powder in your pantry? Just use peanut butter to taste and one tablespoon of cocoa powder.

    I’ve tried Peanut Butter and Banana smoothies and thought they were too thick and sweet but this one has great potential…maybe you should change the Unrefined Vegan to just a peanut butter blog 😉 Great stuff here!
