Is there anything better than the combo of peanut butter and bananas? It’s always been a favorite of mine since I was a child, and I passed that love affair on to my kids too. The tropical sweetness of bananas paired with the nutty earthy flavor of peanut butter is just so good. And these flavors simply shine in this super easy 10 minute, 8 ingredient peanut butter banana smoothie bowl. All you have to do is toss bananas, peanut butter, dates, chia seeds, and plant-based milk into a small blender, push the button, and make a smooth naturally sweet peanut butter banana smoothie. Then pour the smoothie mix into two bowls and top with banana slices, peanuts, cocoa nibs (unsweetened cacao pieces), chia seeds, and voila! You’ve got a beautiful, delicious, healthy Banana and Peanut Butter Smoothie Bowl for two. You can also use this recipe for a smoothie bowl meal prep, too. Just pack away in mason jars or Weck jars to bring to work, or feast on the next day for breakfast. And kids will love it in their lunch boxes, too! This recipe makes two large (about 2 cups) smoothie bowls, but you can divide it into four small snack-size smoothie bowls, too.
