Is it surprising that banana is the fifth most popular milkshake flavor? We don't think so! Especially if it's this Banana Creme Protein Milkshake! Vanilla protein ice cream is blended with real banana and pudding mix, then topped with whipped cream and vanilla wafers. It's a dreamy dessert you've gotta try!
NOTES: We used sugar free JELLO pudding mix, but you can use any brand of dry instant pudding powder. For the powdered sweetener, we recommend one that measures like sugar (not too sweet). Feel free to use gluten free vanilla wafers if needed! For lower calories and sugar, use unsweetened almond milk (won't be as creamy).
Banana Creme Protein Milkshake
Makes 1 serving
Ingredients:
10 oz. + 2 oz. skim milk, divided
1 scoop Banana Creme Protizyme
1 tbsp. powdered sweetener
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
2 tsp. sugar free banana pudding mix (optional)
1/2 medium banana
2 tbsp. light whipped topping (optional)
2 crushed vanilla wafer cookies (optional)
Directions:
Combine 10 oz. milk with protein, sweetener, and vanilla in a sealed freezer bag. Shake and slosh with your hand on the counter until no dry clumps remain.
Place your bag in the freezer for 8 hours or overnight until frozen solid.
In a blender, add frozen bag contents and 2 oz. additional milk, blending until smooth (break up frozen contents if your blender needs help).
Next, add pudding mix and banana. Blend again until smooth.
Drizzle the inside of a 12-14 oz. glass with remaining caramel, and pour in blended milkshake.
Top with whipped topping and enjoy!
