This gluten-free and dairy-freePeanut Butter Jelly Time Smoothie is a more convenient way to enjoy one of my favorite childhood sandwiches. Enjoy all the flavors of this classic packed into a delicious smoothie for a fulfilling meal replacement with over 12 grams of protein. This is a great way to get your PB&J craving satisfied while cutting out gluten from the bread and also makes a great “on-the-go” meal. It’s naturally sweetened by the fruit for a healthier option than normally used jelly with high-fructose corn syrup.
How do I like my PB&J sandwich? With strawberry jelly, creamy peanut butter and sliced bananas nestled between two big slices of whole wheat bread. I’ve recreated my sandwich version in this smoothie using fresh strawberries, banana slices, peanut butter, milled flax seeds, almond milk and a touch of Nature’s Flavors Organic Strawberry Flavor Concentrate to help enhance the “strawberry jelly” flavor, (otherwise the peanut butter overpowers the balance.) Makes approximately 16 ounces. See nutritional information in the recipe card found at bottom.
