- 2 tbsp ground flax seed

Instructions
Step 1: Blend the Ingredients
In a high-speed blender, combine the coconut milk, Greek yogurt, chopped dates, banana, peanut butter, almond milk, ground almonds, and flax seeds. Add a handful of ice to create a thick, chilled texture.
Step 2: Blend Until Smooth
Blend on high speed for 1-2 minutes, or until all ingredients are fully combined and the shake is smooth and creamy. If needed, add more almond milk to adjust the consistency to your preference.
Serving and Storage
Pour the shake into a glass and enjoy immediately for the freshest taste. For an extra boost, top with a sprinkle of ground flax seeds, almonds, or a drizzle of peanut butter. You can also blend in extra ice for a thicker, smoothie-like texture.
If storing for later, keep the shake in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Shake or stir before drinking, as some separation may occur. For a grab-and-go option, store it in a reusable bottle for an easy, nutritious drink anytime.
