Step 1

If using milk (dairy) boil, cool and chill it. Using milk directly without boiling may split the shake. If you want a chilled shake, simply freeze the sliced bananas for 1 hour in the freezer.

Step 2

Optional - Rinse and soak cashews for 30 mins or almonds for 4 to 6 hours. Peel the skin and discard. Give the nuts a good rinse. You can also add them directly to the blender without soaking and blanching.

Step 3

Add them to a blender jar. Also add dates or sugar.

Step 4

Next add cinnamon or cardamom powder & vanilla extract if you prefer.

Step 5

Pour the water or milk. Then blend well. To reduce the chunks, blend them as smooth as possible.

Step 6

Add banana and blend until smooth and frothy.

Step 7

Pour banana shake to serving glasses. Consume the milkshake immediately. You can top the banana shake with your favorite toppings. I usually add a pinch of cinnamon.

Step 8

Add 2 large bananas, 6 scoops of ice cream and ½ cup of milk. Blend until smooth and frothy. If you want a thinner banana shake simply add more milk & blend.
