Peanut Butter and Jelly Smoothie
Peanut Butter and Jelly Smoothie looks beautiful in a glass with separate layers that taste like grape jelly and peanut butter! Use your choice of berries for different options.
Here I go again with the PB and J theme! If you know me, you know that I love anything peanut butter and jelly flavored. When I hear about that combination, I am instantly sold! I love smoothies because they are filling, totally customizable and are a great way to pack a bunch of nutrients into one glass.
I've been wanting to attempt a peanut butter and jelly smoothie for awhile and decided to finally do it. I used blueberries but you could easily use strawberries or raspberries instead depending on what you like. Using frozen berries makes the smoothie thicker and easier to layer. If you use fresh berries, freeze them before making this or use less liquid.
Adalyn loves smoothies and when she was younger, called them "moothies". She would drink them out of her sippy cup and would have a green mustache. Too cute! She loved this one and we drank ours together. At first, my plan was to blend milk with the frozen blueberries and then I realized that I had concord grape juice in the fridge and tried that instead. It made it taste just like grape jelly. So, so good!!

Peanut Butter and Jelly Smoothie
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 1 large banana, frozen
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter powder
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1/2 cup frozen blueberries
- 1/3 cup concord grape juice
Instructions
1. Place the ingredients for the peanut butter smoothie layer in the blender and blend until smooth. Pour into a glass.
2. Add the blueberries and grape juice to the blender and blend until smooth. Pour carefully into glass on top of other layer. Top with peanuts and blueberries if desired.
This recipe uses my favorite peanut butter powder: Purely Inspired Powdered Peanut Butter. I have been a fan of powdered peanut butter for years and this one is delicious. It has 90% less fat per serving than peanut butter. I do not typically use it in place of PB but like to add it to different sweet and savory dishes to use in a different way. It can give great flavor to foods. It is only made with roasted peanuts, sugar and salt and has 6 grams of protein per serving. I also like it mixed into yogurt for a peanut butter Greek yogurt, I eat it daily in my oatmeal and it is tasty in smoothies.
