This peanut butter cottage cheese smoothie is thick, nutty, and completely satisfying without banana. Dates add gentle natural sweetness, while cottage cheese and Greek yogurt make it extra creamy and protein-packed for an easy breakfast blend.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup cottage cheese
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter
- 1 small pitted date
- 3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/2 teaspoon honey drizzle
- 3-4 ice cubes
How To Make It
Add cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, peanut butter, pitted date, almond milk, and honey to a blender. Blend on high until completely smooth and creamy. Add ice cubes and blend again until thick and cold. Pour into a glass and enjoy immediately.
Tips
Use full-fat cottage cheese for a richer texture or low-fat for a lighter option. If the date is dry, soak it in warm water for five minutes before blending. For a thicker smoothie, add a few extra ice cubes or reduce the almond milk slightly. Any creamy peanut butter works well.
This smoothie is a deliciously filling way to start the day.
