Banana Chocolate Milkshake Smoothie

I am not a huge smoothie person but I really love this smoothie and really crave it all the time now!

Wow! This is literally chocolate ice cream. My husband even agreed. I did not use dates but it was still sweet enough. Added chopped walnuts as toppings. 10/10 would make again

Delicious!! I added my protein powder to it so it was a perfect pre workout drink ✨☺️

Delicious!

I added a scoop of chocolate protein powder! SO creamy. What a yummy and delicious snack/treat! Hits the sweet spot!

So yummy! We used a half cup more of almond milk to thin it out to our liking, and then it was perfect.

New favorite smoothie! I especially love how thick it is. Gives it that milkshake quality.

I absolutely adore this!
Usually I use fresh bananas, not frozen ones, add more plant milk and sometimes I omit the dates. Each version I have tried up till now was heavenly. Today I made it with fresh homemade (=warm) almond-soy milk and it was as heavenly warm as it is cold!
In short - delicious!

Amazing! Started by making almond butter and then made this afterwards, to "clean out" the blender 😄 definitely making more of this!

A lovely idea to clean out the blender! Thanks friend ✨

It was good. For my personal taste it was too banana-y. Didn't use date and it was sweet enough.🍌🍫

Hey Nicole, thanks for the feedback! We've heard a few reviews that the smoothie is a touch too sweet (we love our sweet flavours here 😜) so we've cut back on the dates a touch.

I tried again with swapping half the banana in the recipe for avocado! So creamy and the sweetness of the date made it all work. 🙂

So I made this for my partner today who cannot believe that there's no sugar in it and that it's such a healthy alternative to real chocolate milkshakes. He's amazed and said he'll be having it every day from now. ;-) Thank you PUL team!

Yum!

Chocolatey and delcous!

This is the perfect smoothie for my sweet tooth! I love it so much!

I love this. The ingredients are easy and really help curb my appetite for chocolate. I did end up adjusting the amounts of the ingredients to how I like it and now it’s one of my go to desserts 😋

Wow this was way too sweet for our liking, even my 6 year old didn’t like this. If you don’t have a sweet tooth, I’d recommend to omit the dates.

This is one of my favorites! I make it almost every day lol my boyfriend also loves it!

Perfect recipe to fix sudden chocolate cravings 😁

This is my first PUL recipe and it was delicious. I think it might’ve been helpful to soak the dates in warm for a while before blending the smoothie as I had a lot of chucks but I liked them so it wasn’t a big deal. I also had to use cow’s milk as we’re fresh in the transition to plant based. I’ll be excited to see if there’s a significant difference in taste with plant milk in the near future. Cheers, PUL team. This was a great first impression!

Delicious! I just added 1 date and 1 banan for 2 portions, was sweet enough.
Also- I dunno how you guys measure but 2 tbsp of almond butter for me is almost like half of a small jar xd so I added 1
Then just put 2 sq of dark chocolate on top of smoothie glass, put it under a grill oven and after 4 mins was melted.
Waited 5 so it cools and was delicious!
Next time I’m adding whipped cream :)

Hey Luiza! Thanks so much for sharing your experience with the recipe 💛 whipped cream is a lovely idea. For tablespoons, it may help to gently spoon the almond butter into the spoon rather than pressing the nut butter into the spoon. 1 tablespoon sounds lovely too though!

So delicious🤩😋

Yummy. I used a tablespoon of maple syrup instead of dates. Tastes like summer.
