Healthy Chocolate Banana Milkshake
Listen, if youâre here for a tasty smoothie recipe I know youâd like that recipe quickly. So Iâll skip the traditional food blogger shpeel about the time I went apple pickingâĤbecause A. that has nothing to do with the recipe and B. who TF cares, haha.
But I will give you a couple food facts real quick because, well, I can.
What Youâll Need
- A good blender (May I recommend my favorite one Iâve ever had)?
- Frozen Bananas
- Almond/Coconut Milk
- Cocoa Powder
- Cinnamon
Cocoa Powder isnât healthyâĤis it?
Yes. Yes it is actually. As long as itâs not cut with other stuff and is just straight cocoa powder itâs pretty healthy for you. In fact, itâs a great food to help reduce inflammation in the body and has been shown to offer heart benefits!

Cinnamon too?
Again cinnamon by itself is super good for you. Itâs stuffed with antioxidants and is also a good anti-inflammatory. Of course, cinnamon for this recipe is optional, but it tastes so good why would you skip it!
Both of these ingredients we often associate with desserts and therefore unhealthy. But thatâs only because theyâre often paired with heaping piles of sugar and fatsâĤwhich weâre skipping today.

Important Ingredient Note:
If you are using fresh bananas and have no desire to wait and freeze them, thatâs fine. Just make sure you add about a cup of ice to the blender too.
If you donât youâre going to have a lukewarm lumpy chocolate milkâĤfrozen-ness is important to proper milkshake consistency.
