Key Ingredients for banana milkshake without ice cream

Banana. Theoretically, it is good to make with any banana, but I would suggest making with the ripened one that is seen with black spots on its skin. This makes the milkshake smooth and silky; it does taste sweeter than the regular banana.

You have some bananas that are ripening on the kitchen counter. No worries, peel the skin off, throw them in the airtight sealed containers, and freeze them for future use. You can use these to make milkshakes whenever needed.

Milk. You may use the milk that you regularly use. The recipe does not restrict the milk. It can be low-fat, 2%, 1%, or whole milk. The milk is the binding agent, and you can choose accordingly.

Vegans may choose plant-based milk like almond, coconut, or soy milk.

Sugar. The ripened bananas are so sweet that this milkshake without ice cream requires no additional sweetener.

But if you prefer, you may use natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup.

Or you may use palm sugar or coconut sugar to make this nutrient-rich.

Spice. Cinnamon and banana are inseparable and balance well with each other. Pure vanilla extract mimics the ice cream flavor and enhances the taste. You may use both pure vanilla extract and cinnamon or any of them. There is no strict rule for adding spices. You craft yours according to your individual preference.
