In serious need of comfort food (thank you, Bomb Cyclone), but wanting to keep your New Year's resolutions? Enter Peanut Butter Banana Vegan Hot Chocolate. No sugar added, dairy free and nutritious!
Here's one of the easiest vegan hot chocolate recipes you'll ever find. Not only easy, but nutritious and guilt free! All you need is a handful of ingredients that you most likely have hanging around your kitchen:
- Non dairy milk (we suggest coconut or almond-coconut, but any kind will work)
- Unsweetened cocoa powder (you can use more on less to taste)
- A banana
- Peanut butter (we recommend the natural kind, made from peanuts only with no added ingredients)
The banana adds enough sweetness that there's no need for any other sweetener. However, if you like your hot chocolate on the sweet side, you can add some maple syrup, or your natural sweetener of choice.
The combination of peanut butter and banana blended together give this vegan hot chocolate a thick, rich consistency, and it will thicken more as it cools.
