Equipment

  • 1 high-speed blender
  • 1 measuring cup
  • 1 tablespoon
  • 1 bowl (chilled, optional)
  • 1 spoon (for mixing and serving)

Ingredients
  

For the Smoothie Base

  • 2 medium frozen bananas sliced
  • ½ cup frozen mixed berries strawberries, blueberries, raspberries
  • ¼ cup almond milk or preferred non-dairy milk
  • 1 tbsp peanut butter or almond butter, optional
  • 1 tsp chia seeds optional, for extra fiber
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract optional, for added flavor

For the Toppings

  • ¼ cup granola
  • 2 tbsp shredded coconut
  • 2 tbsp sliced almonds or preferred nuts
  • ¼ cup fresh berries strawberries, blueberries, raspberries
  • 1 tbsp cacao nibs optional
  • 1 tsp honey or maple syrup optional, for extra sweetness

Instructions
 

Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients

  • Ensure the bananas and berries are frozen for the best texture.
    If using fresh fruit, freeze them for at least 4 hours before making the smoothie bowl.
  • Chill your serving bowls in the freezer for 5-10 minutes to keep the smoothie cold longer.

Step 2: Blend the Smoothie Base

  • In a high-speed blender, add frozen bananas, frozen berries, almond milk, peanut butter, chia seeds, and vanilla extract (if using).
  • Start blending on low speed, gradually increasing to medium.
    Use a tamper to push the ingredients down and blend until smooth.
  • If the mixture is too thick and not blending well, add 1-2 tablespoons of extra almond milk, but avoid adding too much to maintain thickness.

Step 3: Assemble the Smoothie Bowl

  • Pour the thick smoothie mixture into a chilled bowl and smooth out the surface with a spoon.
  • Add toppings: Sprinkle granola, coconut, almonds, fresh berries, cacao nibs, and a drizzle of honey or maple syrup (if desired).

Step 4: Serve and Enjoy

  • Serve immediately with a spoon and enjoy your delicious, nutrient-packed Vegan Smoothie Bowl!

Notes

  • For a nut-free version: Use sunflower seed butter or skip nut-based toppings.
  • For extra protein: Add 1 scoop of plant-based protein powder to the blender.
  • To make it thicker: Reduce liquid or add ½ cup frozen mango or avocado for extra creaminess.
  • Make-ahead tip: Freeze portioned smoothie ingredients in a bag and blend when ready.
