Instructions

Prepare the Ingredients: If you’re using fresh blueberries, give them a good rinse. For frozen blueberries, there’s no need to thaw them. Peel the banana. If using frozen banana, it's best to have them sliced before freezing to make it easier to blend.

Blend It Up: Add the blueberries, banana, peanut butter, flaxseed, and almond milk to your blender. Blend on high until everything is well combined and creamy.

Adjust Consistency: If the smoothie is too thick for your liking, add a splash more almond milk and blend again. If it’s too thin, add a few more blueberries or a bit of ice and blend until you reach your desired thickness.

Serve and Enjoy: Pour the smoothie into a glass or a to-go cup. Garnish it with a few extra blueberries or a sprinkle of crushed peanuts for a crunchy texture.

Optional Add-in: For extra sweetness, add a tablespoon of homemade date syrup.
