Vegan MoFo 6: Chocolate-Peanut Butter Smoothie with Strawberry Creme

Smoothie from aboveAnd so we come to the inevitable (if not enviable) smoothie entry.  The peanut-butter-and-jelly smoothie came in at Numero 7 on – say it with me – 29 Ways to Honor the Glory of Peanut Butter and Jelly.  The original recipe came from Becky Bakes (good thing for me that she also makes smoothies).

You will have extra strawberry creme. I hope this will not prove to be an inconvenience for you.

Sharing this smoothie goodness on Healthy Vegan Friday on The Veggie Nook.

Smoothie
  1. 1 1/2 cups water
  2. a couple of ice cubes
  3. 1/3 cup Chocolate PB2 powder*
  4. 6 oz. plain coconut milk yogurt
  5. 2 bananas, cut into pieces and frozen
  6. 1 heaping Tbsp. natural peanut butter
  7. 2 dates
  8. 1/4 tsp. vanilla extract
Strawberry Creme
  1. 1/2 cup coconut milk (chilled overnight; full fat, the good stuff at the top of the can)
  2. 4 large strawberries cut into chunks
  3. 1/4 tsp. vanilla extract
  4. 1 packet crystallized stevia or your sweetener of choice
Make the Strawberry Creme
  1. In a food processor, process the strawberries until finely chopped. You'll have to scrape the sides down several times. Add a tiny bit of water if necessary. Add the remaining ingredients and process until very smooth. Put mixture into the refrigerator while you prepare the smoothies.
Make the Smoothies
  1. Add all of the smoothie ingredients to the blender and process until thick and smooth. Divide between two glasses and top with the strawberry creme.
Notes
  1. *Don't happen to have Chocolate PB2 powder in your pantry? Just use peanut butter to taste and one tablespoon of cocoa powder.

    Peanut butter in a smoothie? I would never have thought of that, and your strawberry creme looks absolutely wonderful.

    This part cracked me up: “You will have extra strawberry creme. I hope this will not prove to be an inconvenience for you.” I feel fairly confident I’ll be able to power through with the extra strawberry creme. I’m brave like that.

    I’ve tried Peanut Butter and Banana smoothies and thought they were too thick and sweet but this one has great potential…maybe you should change the Unrefined Vegan to just a peanut butter blog 😉 Great stuff here!

    Um, yeah, the leftover strawberry cream would NOT be an inconvenience! I think I could eat that by the spoonful. Love adding peanut butter to smoothies. You are rocking MoFo Annie!
