Ingredients

500 ml Whole Milk
1 Banana
2 tbsp Peanut Butter
60 g Weight Gainer Protein Powder

Instructions

Pour whole milk into a blender. This can be done directly if your blender has measurement markings, saving you some cleaning effort.
Add the weight gainer protein powder into the blender with the milk.
Break the banana into halves or thirds, then place it in the blender. Follow up by adding the 2 tablespoons of pure peanut butter.
Blend the ingredients together for approximately 15 to 20 seconds or until you observe no lumps remaining in the mixture.
Pour the smooth and creamy smoothie into a glass or a protein shake bottle. It's ready to serve immediately.

Notes

This weight gainer smoothie is best used for a calorie surplus, not as a meal replacement. Adding it to your regular diet on top of your maintenance calories will help you achieve a calorie surplus and aid in weight gain.
The timing of consuming this smoothie can impact its benefits. It's particularly effective as a post-workout drink because it's high in protein and carbs, aiding in muscle recovery.
To make this recipe vegan, swap the whole milk for a vegan milk substitute such as almond, soy, or oat milk, and ensure you use a vegan weight gainer protein powder.
To make the cleaning process easier, add the milk first before other ingredients. This prevents ingredients, especially the peanut butter, from sticking at the bottom of the blender.
Begin blending at a slow speed and gradually increase it to avoid the protein powder splattering against the blender's sides.
After preparation, it's best to consume the smoothie immediately. However, if you need to store it, ensure it's kept in a sealed container in the refrigerator and consumed within 24 hours. After storing, you may need to shake or briefly blend the smoothie to regain its smooth texture.
