Calling all pb&j fans! This peanut butter and jelly smoothie is made with layered of “jelly” smoothie and “peanut butter” smoothie for a delicious and filling breakfast and snack. It’s also healthy, vegan and naturally refined-sugar free!  peanut butter and jelly smoothie One of my all-time favorite food combinations has got to be peanut butter and jelly. (Bet you didn’t see that one coming…) I still constantly indulge in some peanut butter and homemade jam on fresh bread, toast, pita, crackers,  tortillas…basically any carb base I can find to put it on. Well, now I can ditch the bread since with this peanut butter and jelly smoothie! There’s something that’s just so yummy about the combination, and I think we all get a little nostalgic when we eat it. peanut butter and jelly smoothie I love creating recipes with peanut butter in them. I’m a total peanut butter nut! (your welcome for that pun.) I love using peanut butter in both sweet and savory recipes. I’m talking peanut butter noodles, peanut butter cookies, and peanut butter tarts. I also love adding peanut butter (or any nut butter) to my smoothies. Adding nut butter to your smoothies is a great way to make them more filling, and add some extra protein and healthy fats, that will keep you full.

This peanut butter and jelly smoothie is:

  • High in protein
  • Keeps you feeling full
  • Vegan & gluten-free
  • naturally refined-sugar free
peanut butter and jelly smoothie The jelly part of the smoothie is made with frozen raspberries, but if you prefer strawberries for you “jelly” you can use them instead. The peanut butter part of the smoothie uses bananas as a base, but if you’re looking to reduce the overall sugar smoothie (or if you just don’t like bananas), you can also use frozen cauliflower instead. (This will make the smoothie less sweet though!)

    Wow is all I can say. Thank you Jess for this treat! I tried it for the first time this morning for my daughter’s birthday and we both loved it, especially the peanut butter layer. I think next time I’ll try making the “jelly” layer using frozen strawberries 🙂

    This is a delicious smoothie!!! My two girls are huge PB&J fans so I’ve made this for them and they both loved it! I’ve now made this several times in the last week! Super yummy and healthy which is a huge bonus when trying to get kids to eat healthy. Thanks so much for the recipe!

      Well I can only take that heart as a good thing! 🙂

  4. Cassie Thuvan Tran says:

    Oh my, this peanut butter and jelly smoothie looks gorgeous! I love the raspberry swirls in the peanut butter banana base. It probably tastes so sweet, nutty, tarty, and decadent!

  5. Jessy Kastanek says:

    This smoothie is seriously delicious! I made it for lunch today and I am satisfied – both by the taste and in the fact that my hunger is satiated – and full of energy! I used powdered peanut butter instead of the real thing so that it was a little lower in fat, but next time I will use creamy peanut butter and the “cauliflower-for-banana” swap. THANK YOU, Jess, for conceiving vegetarian and vegan recipes that are easy to make and appeal even to meat eaters!
