Ingredients

Scale

Frozen Fruits

  • 1 cup mixed frozen berries, mango, or banana

Liquid Base

  • 1/2 to 3/4 cup almond milk, coconut water, or plant-based milk of choice

Greens or Veggies (optional)

  • 1/2 cup spinach or kale

Protein Options (optional)

  • 1/4 cup Greek yogurt or 1 scoop protein powder

Toppings

  • Granola
  • Nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts)
  • Seeds (chia, flaxseeds)
  • Fresh fruit slices (banana, berries)
  • Coconut flakes

Natural Sweeteners (optional)

  • Drizzle of honey or maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Choose Your Base Ingredients: Start by selecting your frozen fruits, a liquid base, and optional protein or greens. Frozen bananas or mixed berries paired with almond milk make an excellent foundation that blends into a creamy texture without needing ice.
  2. Blend Until Smooth: Combine all your base ingredients in a high-speed blender and blend until thick and creamy. Pause to scrape down the sides if needed, and adjust liquid amounts gradually to get that perfect thick, spoonable consistency.
  3. Pour and Decorate: Pour your smoothie into a bowl. Now comes the fun part—get creative! Layer on granola, fresh fruit slices, chia seeds, coconut flakes, and nuts for that irresistible crunch and contrast.
  4. Enjoy Immediately: Serve your Smoothie Bowl fresh to enjoy the creamy texture and fresh flavors at their best. The toppings add variety in every bite, making each spoonful a delight.

Notes

  • Freeze your fruit: Using frozen bananas or berries ensures your bowl is thick and creamy without watering it down.
  • Layer toppings thoughtfully: Place crunchy items on top just before serving to keep their texture intact.
  • Add a handful of oats: Including oats in your blend adds bulk and good fiber for longer satiety.
  • Use a powerful blender: A high-speed blender makes a smoother, creamier bowl that’s easier to enjoy.
  • Test your liquid ratio: Start with less liquid and gradually add to prevent an overly runny smoothie.
