How To Make a Banana Milkshake
Pull out your blender. Peel a banana and break it into 3 pieces. Place banana hunks in blender.

Pop the top on the blender and blend until smooth (about 30-60 seconds).
Pour milkshake into glass and add a straw. Enjoy!
Cooking Tips
- A blender is needed for smooth milkshakes. You could also use a food processor
- This recipe makes one serving. Feel free to double the ingredients to make more portions
- Break the banana into a few pieces to fit more easily in blender
- For an even thicker consistency, peel the banana and freeze it before adding to the blender. This will make a thick, extra chilly banana shake
How Do You Make a Thicker Milkshake?
The thickness of a milkshake depends on the ice cream to milk ratio. Use more ice cream than milk for a thicker milkshake. You can also add protein powder or frozen fruit to increase the thickness of the shake. At this point, you may need to forgo the straw and use a spoon to eat the milkshake.
How To Blend Up A Smooth Milkshake
To make a super smooth milkshake, use a blender and combine all the ingredients at a slow speed. This helps all the ingredients to be incorporated and makes for a smooth consistency that you’ll love. Adding an extra scoop of ice cream also helps to thicken the milkshake and make it smooth and delicious.
