Instructions
-
1

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a peanut butter banana smoothie good for muscle building?
Yes. With 25g protein, healthy fats, and complex carbs, it is an excellent post-workout recovery drink. The combination of fast and slow-digesting nutrients supports muscle protein synthesis.
Can I make this smoothie without protein powder?
Yes. Add an extra tablespoon of peanut butter and some Greek yogurt. The protein will be slightly lower (around 18g) but still substantial.
Why add oats to a smoothie?
Oats add fiber, complex carbs, and a thicker consistency. They also help keep you full longer by slowing digestion. Use quick oats for the smoothest blend.
