Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Gather all your ingredients and equipment.
- Place the 1/2 cup of ice cream on the counter for a few minutes to soften slightly, making it easier to blend.
- Peel the banana and, on a cutting board, cut it into smaller pieces. This will help it blend more smoothly.
- Put the softened ice cream into the blender.
- Pour in the 1 cup of milk.
- Add the banana pieces to the blender.
- Secure the lid on the blender.
- Blend the mixture on medium to high speed until it is smooth and creamy. This should take about 30 seconds to 1 minute, depending on your blender’s power.
- If the milkshake is too thick for your liking, you can add a little more milk and blend again. Conversely, if it’s too thin, you can add a bit more ice cream.
- Once the milkshake reaches your desired consistency, turn off the blender.
- Pour the milkshake into a tall glass.
- Optionally, you can top it with whipped cream, a cherry, or even a sprinkle of cinnamon for extra flavor.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Vanilla Banana Milkshake!
Tips:
- For a thicker milkshake, use frozen banana slices instead of a fresh banana.
- Experiment with different types of milk, like almond milk or oat milk, to suit your dietary preferences or enhance the flavor.
- If you prefer a sweeter milkshake, add a tablespoon of honey or a splash of vanilla extract.
- To ensure a smoother blend, break the banana into smaller pieces before adding it to the blender.
- Add a handful of ice cubes if you like your milkshake extra cold and frothy.
- Consider garnishing with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg for an extra touch of flavor and presentation.
