Blended frozen banana turns into a texture close to soft serve. Very little liquid is needed, so the result is thick enough for a spoon. Eat it right away, as it melts quickly.
Ingredients
Makes 1 serving.
- 1 scoop vanilla whey protein powder (about 30 g)
- 2 medium frozen bananas
- ¼ cup 2% milk
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt
Method
- Break the frozen bananas into chunks and add them to the blender with the milk.
- Add the protein powder, vanilla, and salt.
- Blend, stopping to scrape down the sides, until it forms a thick, creamy mixture.
- Spoon into a bowl or glass and eat immediately.
