Ingredients for Banana Date Shake
- Soymilk
- 1/2 cup pitted dates
- 2 ripe bananas
How to Make Banana Date Shake
- Add 2 ripe bananas, 1/2 cup pitted dates, 1 cup plant-based milk (almond, soy, or oat milk work well), 1/4 cup water, and a pinch of salt to a high-speed blender.
- Blend until completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
- Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary. Add more dates for extra sweetness, or a squeeze of lemon juice for a tangy twist.
- For a thinner shake, add more plant-based milk, 1/4 cup at a time, until desired consistency is reached.
- Pour into a glass and enjoy immediately! Garnish with extra dates, banana slices, or a sprinkle of cinnamon for an extra touch.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
