This nutty and irresistible Peanut Butter Milkshake is absolutely a delicious treat. Its beautiful to present and refreshing to serve. Along with being vegan its creamy without any ice cream and yet satisfying.
Milkshakes are my favorite. It reminds of my childhood days where we would indulge in calorie loaded creamy milkshakes.
Since, we are more conscious of nutrition now, I avoid getting one from the restaurants. Also, because I love peanut butter so much, I decided to include it in my shake.
At the same time, I ran out of vegan ice cream so I decided to blend all other ingredients in a blender. After that I used crushed ice to thicken my peanut butter shake.
Voila! My imagination came true and my technique worked. Therefore, I skip the calories of ice cream now and blend my shakes with whatever I have handy in my refrigerator.
Therefore, this peanut butter milkshake without ice cream is my favorite go to beverage. Moreover, Ruvanshi surprised me. She got very attracted to it and took a sip. In next 5 minutes it was all gone and I hardly got a chance for another sip.
She loved it so much that this vegan peanut butter milkshake became her lunch and she enjoyed a large serving of this. Hence, I made another round and yet came out exactly the way I wanted.
I was super happy and became sure of my new recipe. Immediately, I knew I had to share this recipe with you all.

How to make Peanut Butter Milkshake
Step1: how to blend
- Firstly, I combined oat milk, peanut butter, dates and vanilla extract in a blender and blended it smooth.
- Secondly, I added crushed ice to it and blended it again.
Step 2: how to assemble
- Firstly, I melted chocolate chips and covered the glass rim with it very well.
- Secondly, I crushed some raw peanuts roughly to stick to the chocolate covered rim.
- Next, I poured the shake in the same glass.
- Thereafter, I topped with whipped cream.
- Lastly, I drizzled some more peanut butter and sprinkled some more crushed peanuts.
I served it immediately and we all loved it. Infact I made 3 rounds of it in only half an hour. It was so good and inviting.
Expert tips:
- It is better to decorate the glass rim first before blending the shake. This way you can enjoy a thicker milkshake.
- It is important to add crushed ice after other ingredients are blended so as get the right texture.
Overall, it’s a quick and easy recipe which can be made in a short notice and without too much plan.
This tastes best when served immediately.
I made it without ice cream so we save on some calories. Moreover, its sugar free since I sweetened it with dates. To make it healthier you may skip whipped cream as well and save some more calories. Overall, it’s a healthier shake which you may enjoy frequently.
Yes, you can certainly add ice cream to this shake. However, you may want to adjust the measurements by reducing vanilla extract to 1 tsp and skipping dates altogether to avoid over sweetening the shake or may add 2 dates to it depending on your taste.

Peanut Butter Milkshake
Ingredients
- 1 cup oat milk
- 2 tbsp peanut butter
- 1/4 cup pitted dates
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup crushed ice
Toppings
- 1 tbsp Chocolate chips (melted)
- 2 tsp crushed raw peanuts
- vegan whipped cream
- 1 tsp peanut butter
Instructions
- In a blender combine oat milk, 2 tbsp peanut butter, dates and vanilla extract and blend it smooth. Once blended smooth, pause and add crushed ice to the blender. Blend the entire milkshake for 30seconds or until it thickens a bit.
- Now, decorate the rim of the jar/glass with melted chocolate and stick crushed raw peanut to it.
- Pour the milkshake in it carefully. Top it with whipped cream, drizzle some peanut butter and sprinkle some more crushed peanuts. Enjoy immediately.
Notes
- For melting chocolate – take 1 tbsp of dairy free chocolate chips in a microwavable bowl and microwave it for 20 seconds. Stir with a spoon. If the chips have partially melted then whip it up vigorously or else microwave it more for another 10 seconds. Now with the help of the back of the spoon cover the glass rim with the chocolate instead of inverting it into the chocolate.
- This recipe tastes best when served immediately. If kept for longer it starts liquidating and looses its texture.
- This recipe makes 1 large milkshake and 2 small milkshakes.
