Vegan Peanut Butter Shake!
This Peanut Butter Vanilla Shake is so thick and delicious. It really tastes like a milkshake! The vanilla and peanut butter make a great flavour combination. This shake is a much healthier version of a classic milkshake. The base is actually made with cauliflower! Once everything is blended smoothly and combined, you would never know you were drinking vegetables.
I added hemp hearts and peanut butter for some healthy fats and protein to keep you full and satisfied. You could also add flax seeds, sesame seeds, or sunflower seeds for this purpose. The sweetness comes from frozen banana and natural dates. Feel free to adjust the sweetness to your liking by adding more banana or extra dates. I find that 1 date is sweet enough for my liking.
If you’re a fan of chocolate peanut butter, you could also add about 1 tablespoon of cocoa or cacao powder for a chocolatey shake. You could also add vanilla or chocolate protein powder for a higher protein snack. For those in Canada, my recommended brand is Botanica Perfect Protein for their super clean ingredients without any added sugar.
