How to Make a Smoothie Bowl - an easy guide to make juice-shop worthy smoothie bowls at home in four simple steps! Customize it with your fruit of choice!
Ingredients
Scale
- Small frozen banana, sliced OR 1 cup cauliflower
- 1 cup frozen fruit of choice - we used mixed berries but strawberries, pineapple, mangos, etc. all work great!
- 1/4 cup liquid of choice - we used almond milk but any milk or juice will work
- Optional scoop of protein powder
- Optional spoonful of nut butter
- Toppings of your choice - granola, nuts and seeds, sliced fruit, freeze dried fruit, nut butter, coconut flakes, etc. etc.
Instructions
- Add the frozen banana (or cauliflower) and fruit to the blender and blend on low. The goal of this step is to chop the frozen fruit into small bits - which will make blending later a breeze. Pick the lowest setting and let the blender do its thing. The fruit will bounce all around the blender as it gets chopped into small pieces.
- Add milk and blend until smooth. Blend on low until the little fruit bits turn into a smooth mixture. You may need to scrape down the sides a few times to "unstick" the blender. Once the mixture is moving, ever so slowly increase the speed to medium to help the smoothie become a smoother consistency.
- Once smooth, add in optional protein powder, nut butter, and other superfoods. Blend again, starting on low, until smooth.
- Pour into a bowl, cover with toppings, and ENJOY!
