Vegan Peanut Butter Cup Shake
The Vegan Peanut Butter Cup Shake blends peanut butter, chia seeds, Medjool dates, raw cacao, and vanilla into a creamy, plant-based beverage. Chia seeds add thickness and subtle texture once blended, while the natural sweetness from the dates balances the rich chocolate and peanut flavors. Ice contributes to a cold, refreshing finish. This shake offers a satisfying dairy-free treat that comes together quickly with minimal ingredients.
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup water
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons peanut butter all-natural
- 3 Medjool dates pitted, soft
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 tablespoons raw cacao powder
- sea salt if using unsalted peanut butter, pinch
- 3 ice cubes handfuls
Instructions
- Combine all of the ingredients, except for the ice, in a high-speed blender and blend until the seeds are completely broken down. Add in the ice and blend again to create a thicker shake that's cold and creamy. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Soak chia seeds and dates in water at least 20 minutes or overnight to aid blending if a high-speed blender is unavailable.
- Add a pinch of sea salt if using unsalted peanut butter to enhance flavor.
