Why I love this recipe
Not only is this recipe decadent and delicious, it's also great for gut health! For an extra thick milkshake consistency, I added frozen green bananas. Green bananas are high in resistant starch which your gut bacteria love!
The fiber along with the coconut milk will help keep your blood sugar stable which makes this a great breakfast option! (You could also add in collagen powder for some protein!)
Green bananas are also lower in sugar and have less of a banana flavor. This really lets the coffee flavor shine through!
🍴Ingredient Notes
- Frozen Bananas - I love using frozen bananas because it adds to thick, creamy consistency! For less of a "banana" flavor, cut and freeze when the peel is a pale yellow/green color.
- Full Fat Coconut Milk - It's important to use full fat coconut milk to achieve the thick consistency. You can swap for any non-dairy milk, but it will not be as thick.
- Brewed Coffee - Brewed coffee must be chilled! If you would like an extra kick of caffeine, freeze coffee in an ice cube tray and serve milkshake over coffee cubes!
- Vanilla Extract - If you decide to add in vanilla collagen powder, you can skip the vanilla extract!
Feel free to swap the full fat coconut milk for 1 cup of dairy free vanilla ice cream!
