Ingredients
For the Thick Smoothie Bowl
- 2 cups frozen fruit of choice (such as pineapple, mango, peach, and strawberry)
- 1/4 cup milk of choice (soy milk recommended)
Smoothie Bowl Toppings
- Fresh sliced fruit
- Nut butters
- Nuts & seeds
- Sugar-free granola
Instructions
- Add Ingredients to Blender: Place 2 cups of frozen fruit and 1/4 cup of milk of your choice into a high-speed blender.
- Begin Blending: Start blending on low speed, using your blender’s tamper to push the frozen fruit down toward the blades. This helps incorporate the fruit without needing much liquid for a thicker texture. If you don’t have a tamper, stop the blender occasionally and scrape down the sides.
- Blend Until Smooth and Thick: Increase the blender speed and continue tamping or scraping down until all frozen fruit chunks are blended and the mixture is thick and creamy. Avoid over-blending, as this can thin your smoothie bowl.
- Scoop and Serve: Spoon the thick smoothie mixture into a bowl, smoothing the top with the back of your spoon.
- Add Toppings & Enjoy: Top your smoothie bowl with fresh sliced fruit, nut butters, nuts & seeds, and sugar-free granola as desired. Serve immediately with a spoon and enjoy!
Notes
- Nutrition estimates are for a smoothie bowl made with mixed frozen fruit and soy milk. Nutritional content will vary depending on your specific ingredients and toppings.
- If your blender struggles to blend, let the frozen fruit sit out for a couple minutes to slightly soften.
- You can make this smoothie bowl without banana, or include a banana for extra creaminess.
- Experiment with different frozen fruit combinations to find your favorite flavor and color blend.
