Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/4 cups unsweetened oat milk (or low-fat milk)
- 2 frozen overripe bananas (broken into chunks)
- 8 oz ice cubes (or replace with 8 oz frozen cold brew coffee cubes & omit ice)
- 2 tbsp cashew butter (or substitute almond, sunflower seed, or peanut butter)
- 1 1/2 tbsp instant espresso powder (omit if using frozen cold brew cubes)
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1/4 cup oat flour (or 6 tbsp rolled oats)
- 2 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder (Dutch or regular)
Optional Toppings:
- Sweetened whipped cream or whipped coconut cream
- Chocolate sauce or chocolate shavings
- Vanilla sauce or caramel sauce
Instructions
- In a high-speed blender, add oat milk, frozen bananas, ice cubes (or frozen cold brew cubes), cashew butter, espresso powder, maple syrup, oat flour, and cocoa powder.
- Cover with a lid and blend on low speed, gradually increasing to high speed. Blend until smooth (30–60 seconds).
- Pour into glasses and garnish with whipped cream and optional toppings, if desired.
Notes
- Nut Butter Swap: Almond butter, sunflower seed butter, or peanut butter can be used instead of cashew butter. Cashew butter allows the coffee flavor to shine best.
- Storage: Best enjoyed immediately, but you can freeze leftovers in an airtight container and re-blend when ready to drink.
