Banana and Peach Smoothie
Posted by Dr. Cason on Sunday, June 1st, 2008
You could also call this a peach and banana milkshake but I love the way smooooothie rolls off the tongue of my two year old.
We made this the other night and every night since I have been getting requests. It’s super easy!
Ingredients:
Vanilla Ice cream
Milk
Frozen Peaches
Bananas
Cinnamon and Nutmeg (optional)
How much of each you put in depends on which flavor you want to dominate! I love how banana balances the peaches and I loved the cinnamon and nutmeg. Though put just a pinch of nutmeg. A little goes a long ways.
As for the consistency, I like it frothy and smooth whereas my husband loves it really thick! He was searching for molasses in the cupboards insisting it would taste good! I hurried and poured it saying we didn’t have any. Which we didn’t. So I didn’t feel too bad.
What do you think? Should I have put molasses in my smoothie/milkshake?
What’s your family’s favorite flavor?
Hmmmm… all this ice cream talk- I’m off to fix me some!

This sound yummy. Peaches aren’t in season for us yet, but when we can get them, I’ll give this recipe a try.
Molasses? I don’t think that would taste good, plus it would add a lot of sweetness.
My favorite smoothie is berry. My husband loves chocolate. But my favorite ice cream is coffee flavor.

Molasses? Um, no.
I like to make a strawberry banana smoothie with orange juice. Yum!

Guinevere-
I love OJ with smoothies as well. Wow such combos yet to introduce to my kids. BTW- Guinevere is one of my favorite names. So classy and lovely.

I’m going to leave out the molasses, I think it may be too sweet. Thanks for sharing! Oh, I’m going to pass your recipe to my daughter. She loves smoothies too.

Just found your site today after going to PW’s site. I adore PW and since I don’t have a computer at home, can only visit the site while at work. I definitely will come back to visit your site.

Susan- Totally agree with the molasses! Eww! Love PW as well! I’d love to be a fly on the wall and see how she manages it all!
Please please come back!!
