Peanut Butter Oatmeal Latte Shake

Prep Time: 5 mins | Cook Time: 0 mins | Course: Breakfast | Serves: 1

Coffee, banana, oats, dates, and peanut butter is a shake I can wrap my mind around in the morning. It’s healthy, satisfying, and tasty! A tablespoon of chocolate or cocoa would be nice here, I used up some chocolate-covered banana bites I had in the freezer in one batch.
