Description

A quick and nutrient-rich smoothie bowl made with organic frozen mixed berries, banana, and a splash of light coconut or almond milk, blended to a creamy soft serve consistency and topped with wholesome seeds and granola. Perfect for a healthy, plant-based breakfast or snack in just 5 minutes.


Ingredients

Scale

Base

  • 1 heaping cup organic frozen mixed berries
  • 1 small ripe banana (sliced and frozen)
  • 2-3 Tbsp light coconut or almond milk
  • 1 scoop plain or vanilla protein powder of choice (optional)

Toppings

  • 1 Tbsp shredded unsweetened coconut (desiccated)
  • 1 Tbsp chia seeds
  • 1 Tbsp hemp seeds
  • Granola (to taste)
  • Fresh fruit (to taste)


Instructions

  1. Blend Frozen Fruits: Add the frozen mixed berries and sliced frozen banana to a blender. Blend on low speed until small bits remain, creating a coarse texture.
  2. Add Liquids and Protein: Pour in 2-3 tablespoons of light coconut or almond milk along with the protein powder, if using. Blend again on low speed, scraping down the sides as needed, until the mixture reaches a creamy soft serve consistency.
  3. Serve and Top: Scoop the smoothie mixture into 1-2 bowls depending on desired portion size. Top with shredded unsweetened coconut, chia seeds, hemp seeds, granola, and fresh fruit according to preference.
  4. Enjoy Fresh or Store: The smoothie bowl is best enjoyed immediately. Leftovers can be stored in the freezer for 1-2 weeks; thaw before eating.

Notes

  • This simple smoothie bowl uses just 3 main ingredients but is packed with nutrients and natural sweetness.
  • Protein powder is optional; omit or substitute with your favorite type.
  • For a dairy-free option, use plant-based milk such as almond or coconut milk.
  • Feel free to customize toppings with nuts, nut butters, or other seeds.
  • To maintain the soft serve texture during blending, avoid overblending.
