Description

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

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. Once smooth, add in optional protein powder, nut butter, and other superfoods. Blend again, starting on low, until smooth.
  4. Pour into a bowl, cover with toppings, and ENJOY!
