Scale
Base Ingredients
- 2 frozen bananas, peeled and sliced
- 1 cup mixed frozen berries
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt or plant-based yogurt
- 1/3 cup almond milk or any milk alternative
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
Toppings
- 1/4 cup granola
- Fresh fruit slices (such as kiwi, banana, berries)
- 1 tablespoon coconut flakes or a handful of nuts
- Extra chia seeds for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Your Fruits: Peel and slice the frozen bananas and measure out your mixed frozen berries. Make sure the fruits are well frozen to achieve the thick and creamy smoothie bowl texture.
- Blend the Base: In a high-speed blender, combine the frozen bananas, mixed berries, Greek or plant-based yogurt, and almond milk. Blend until smooth and thick, adding liquid gradually to maintain a scoopable consistency.
- Sweeten the Bowl: If the smoothie tastes tart, add a small drizzle of honey or maple syrup, then pulse briefly to combine. Taste and adjust sweetness as needed.
- Pour and Decorate: Transfer the smoothie base into a bowl. Arrange your toppings such as granola, fresh fruit slices, coconut flakes, nuts, and chia seeds on top in an artistic and inviting manner.
Notes
- Use frozen fruits to ensure thick texture without dilution.
- Add liquids slowly to avoid a runny smoothie bowl.
- Prepare toppings ahead for quick and beautiful decoration.
- Blend in short pulses to keep thick texture and avoid overheating.
- Try adding superfoods like goji berries, hemp seeds, or bee pollen for extra nutrition.
- Store leftover smoothie base separately from toppings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
- You can freeze the smoothie base for up to a month; thaw before use or pulse briefly to restore texture.
- Smoothie bowls are designed to eat cold and don’t require reheating.
