Everyone’s favorite sandwich… is now a milkshake!
Best Dressed
No, I’m not talking about the Oscars last night. I’m talking about the milkshake I made Saturday afternoon; it was gorgeous! Earlier in the day, I went with a friend to find costumes for an Oscars party, and all that shopping made us thirsty. We saved money by skipping Jamba Juice and blending our own drinks upon returning home.
Awhile back, I made a multi-colored Candy Corn Milkshake.
With that drink in mind, I first blended a shake using strawberries and divided it between two glasses. Then I made another shake, but with blueberries instead of strawberries. The result:
PB&J Milkshake
(Makes 1 large serving)
- 1 cup frozen strawberries, or other berries (150g)
- 3/4 cup milk of choice (or canned coconut milk, for a super-rich shake)
- 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 2 T peanut flour or peanut butter (or other nut butter)
- 1/16 tsp salt
- sweetener of choice (amount will depend on your tastes and the type of milk you use)
Oh the directions are really hard for this one. Are you ready for it? Combine all ingredients and blend really well. (I used a Vita-Mix.) Pour into a glass and drink.
See? Really hard!

If this doesn’t quench your pbj thirst…
Try serving alongside some PB & J Fudge.
I need inspiration:
What is your absolute favorite sandwich?
Mine is boring: peanut butter and banana. I especially love when they’re grilled and the banana gets all caramelized and gooey.
Anyway, I’d love to hear your favorite combinations, as I’m not usually very creative when it comes to sandwich-making. My sandwich recipe arsenal could use some inspiration :).
I made this today – I liked it, though I think I prefer banana and peanut butter smoothies 🙂 My favorite sandwich is the same as yours – peanut butter and banana! so yummy.
And I take it the calorie count is given assuming peanut flour was used… because 2 tablespoons of peanut butter would have more calories than the entire count given for this smoothie, haha.
My favorite sandwhich is one with chicken and cream cheese. My grandma used to make my brothers peanut butter and pickle sandwhiches. My brothers loved them. I never tried them…
Woo it’s peanut butta jelly time 🙂
Peanut flour is awesome! Where do you get yours? I use Byrdmill brand.
For a sandwich, I don’t eat bread slices often, but the turkey and cranberry sauce combo is in my top 5 favorites. Peanut Butter and banana is another favorite, but I like chunking pb for a nice crunch, and usually add cinnamon and a little honey to really boost flavor. If I have a good vanilla or chocolate protein powder at the time, I’ll sprinkle some on the pb sometimes.
Thanks for the posts…keep’em coming!
Whole Foods. I don’t know why it’s hard to find!
Grilled cheese w/ sourdough bread, grilled in olive oil, with a big slice of tomato, too! And a million people at work like peanut butter w/ potato chips as a sandwich. Never tried it myself. I’m not big on chips.
how can this only be 125 calories with 2 T of peanut butter?
I bet that tastes amazing! I love me anything that involves peanut butter and jelly. 🙂
I’ve made this (sans sweetener) for breakfast two days in a row now, and it’s fabulous! The vanilla really makes a difference. Thank you so much for the recipe! ^^
Mmm I love PB&J and now love this milkshake! I just made this using Better n Peanut Butter and unsweetened almond milk….delicious, thanks!
Just tried this and it was delicious! 🙂 I love your recipes!
