Description

A quick and nutrient-rich smoothie bowl made with frozen mixed berries, banana, and a blend of superfood toppings, perfect for a healthy breakfast or snack in just 5 minutes.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 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 (quantity as desired)
  • Fresh fruit (quantity as desired)


Instructions

  1. Blend Frozen Fruit: Add frozen mixed berries and frozen banana slices to a blender, then blend on low speed until small bits remain, creating a coarse base texture.
  2. Add Liquids and Protein: Pour in 2-3 tablespoons of light coconut or almond milk and 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 or 2 bowls depending on serving size, then top with shredded coconut, chia seeds, hemp seeds, granola, and fresh fruit or any preferred toppings.
  4. Enjoy Fresh or Store: Best enjoyed immediately. Leftovers can be kept in the freezer for 1-2 weeks; thaw before eating.

Notes

  • This recipe is highly customizable—feel free to swap the protein powder for your favorite brand or omit it for a lighter option.
  • Frozen banana helps achieve the creamy texture without needing ice.
  • Use plant-based milk to keep it vegan and dairy-free.
  • Leftover smoothie bowls freeze well, making them convenient for meal prep.
  • Add a drizzle of nut or seed butter for extra richness and protein.
