Shakes for Breakfast?

I love smoothies, shakes, blender drinks, whatever you want to call them, they are delicious and nutritious as long as you make them at home. ;-)

Especially when it is a Cake Batter Shake.

This is from Chocolate Covered Katie, and this is her Cake Batter Shake recipe. She has the best healthy desserts around!

I had to have one too but I wanted to make mine a little different so here is what I went with.

  • 3/4 to 1 cup of original soy milk
  • 1 Tbs unsweetened creamy peanut butter
  • 1 Frozen banana
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 Tbs cacao nibs

Blend all ingredients in blender. Top with more cacao nibs. YUM! No this is no joke, how can something this good NOT be bad?

Yes, you can have shakes for breakfast!

Thanks for the inspiration, Katie! Check out her blog for many more sweet healthy treats. :-)

  1. My kids would LOVE this. Really any vehicle for sprinkles is a winner in their book.

    I much prefer your version (I don’t think we need the sprinkles – this is an adult appeal thing that we dump on our kids and they grow up with this junk food addiction) – besides, the colours of nature are far more beautiful and captivating :) Very nice Amy.

  4. I need to restock my frozen banana supply ASAP! Those look so yummy! They would make a great after-school snack for the kids too.

  5. Isn’t she the best?! … I looooooove all of her recipes! Seriously, add Xanthan gum to make it seriously taste like an actual cake batter ice cream. :)

  6. Isn’t it the best when healthy food tastes so good?! :-)

  7. This shake looks so good yet so simple! perfect for breakfast!
