Chocolate Hazelnut Smoothie Ingredients and Method
- Banana: Ripe and naturally sweet, bananas add creaminess and thickness to the smoothie.
- Milk: Choose your favourite milk—dairy, almond, soy, or oat milk all work wonderfully.
- Chocolate Hazelnut Spread: This adds a rich, nutty chocolate flavour that makes the smoothie irresistibly indulgent.
- Chia Seeds: For a boost of fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, and a little extra thickness.
- Ice: Keeps the smoothie cold and refreshing.
- Optional Extras – Ice Cream and/or Toasted Hazelnuts: For an extra special treat, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream to make this smoothie even more decadent. Or how about some toasted hazelnuts to really bring out that earthy flavour.
- Making the Smoothie: Not much to say here… Blend well. Serve. Enjoy!
Banana Chocolate Smoothie Tips and Variations:
- Health Boost: To make this smoothie even more nutritious, consider adding a handful of spinach. The banana and chocolate hazelnut spread will mask the flavour of the greens, so you’ll still get that delicious smoothie. Or how about some avocado for an extra smooth smoothie.
- Dairy-Free Option: Use unsweetened almond milk, coconut milk (from a carton) or any other plant-based milk and a dairy-free ice cream to make this smoothie vegan-friendly.
- Extra Toppings: For a little crunch, top your smoothie with chopped hazelnuts or a sprinkle of granola.
This banana choc hazelnut smoothie recipe is a perfect blend of indulgence and nutrition. With the creamy richness of chocolate hazelnut spread and the natural sweetness of banana, it’s a treat that feels luxurious but is packed with wholesome ingredients. The kids are sure to love this one as a special afternoon snack – which will keep them going until dinner.
