Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients

1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk (plus more to thin if desired)
2 tablespoons black chia seeds
3 whole medjool dates (pitted)
1/3 cup roasted + shelled pistachios (plus more for topping)
3 frozen medium + very ripe bananas (peeled and sliced)
2 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 cup plain greek yogurt or use coconut milk yogurt for a vegan option
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method

Mix almond milk and chia seeds in a small bowl. Let sit for 10-15 minutes until thickened.
Add pistachios and pitted medjool dates to a food processor. Blend until finely chopped and butter-like, about 5 minutes, scraping down sides.
To the blender, add the chia seed mixture, frozen banana chunks, cocoa powder, and Greek yogurt.
Blend until the shake is thick, creamy, and smooth, about 3-4 minutes. Scrape down sides as needed.
If the shake is too thick, add more almond milk until desired consistency is reached.
Pour into a glass, top with extra pistachios, and enjoy immediately!

Notes

– For an extra creamy texture, ensure your bananas are very ripe before freezing.
– Adjust sweetness by adding an extra date or a touch of maple syrup if needed.
– Top with a sprinkle of chopped pistachios and a drizzle of melted dark chocolate for an extra special touch.
