Ingredients
Main:
- •banana - 4 pieces
- •milk - 800 ml
Instructions
Chill and set up
Pour the milk (800 ml) into a pitcher and keep it cold while you set up the blender; cold milk helps the banana (4 pieces) blend into a thicker, creamier texture.
Prepare the bananas
Peel the bananas (4 pieces) and break each one into 3 to 4 chunks directly into the blender jar; smaller pieces help the banana purée quickly and evenly with the milk (800 ml).
Add milk and begin blending
Add the cold milk (800 ml) to the blender over the banana pieces (4 pieces). Start blending on low speed for 10 to 15 seconds to combine, then increase to high speed for 30 to 45 seconds until completely smooth.
Adjust texture and serve
Blend for an additional 10 to 20 seconds to aerate slightly for a lighter mouthfeel, then immediately divide the milkshake evenly into 4 glasses (about 200 ml each). Serve at once for the freshest flavor and best texture.
When to Eat
Best served immediately as a quick breakfast, snack, or light dessert.
Health Benefits
Provides potassium and fiber from banana and protein and calcium from milk; naturally sweet without added sugar.
Warnings
Contains milk (dairy).
Serve With
Serve with buttered toast, plain biscuits, or fresh fruit.
