This "milkshake" is so sweet and delicious that I honestly feel guilty having it during our annual sugar fast...even though it does not break our rule that fresh and dried fruits are the only sugar allowed. Taste it and see for yourself! (PS - I like to credit recipes when I get them, or the basis of them, from somewhere else, but this one is all me.)
Ingredients:
2 bananas, peeled
unsweetened plant-based milk, variable amount
cocoa powder
2 big spoonfuls of unsweetened peanut butter
3 dates
handful of frozen mango
Method:
24 hours in advance, cut one banana into 4 pieces and freeze it.
When ready to make the "milkshake", put about 1/2 c. plant-based milk in a blender with the other banana. Add the cocoa powder and peanut butter. Blend until the banana is puréed, then add the dates, frozen banana pieces, and the frozen mango. Blend until completely puréed, adding more milk as necessary to keep the blender going but not so much that the shake loses its thickness (stir first, then only add more liquid if truly necessary). Pour it out and freak out on its amazingness.
