This cacao banana shake is packed full of antioxidants and is so quick and easy to make. Simply place all the ingredients into a blender, blend on high, and voilà! A delicious, healthy, chocolatey treat. I even enjoy it for breakfast some days.
I like to use frozen bananas in this recipe, as I find they produce a thicker consistency. If you haven't got any pre-frozen bananas on hand, then fresh bananas are of course fine. The consistency may be a little runnier, however still very delicious.
QUICK TIP: I like to chop up any overripe bananas I have lying around in the fruit bowl, place them into a container, and then pop them in the freezer so I always have some readily frozen. It also saves those rapidly deteriorating bananas if you haven't had time to eat them.
Enjoy!
