Author: Minimalist Baker

Recipe type: Breakfast

Cuisine: Vegan, Gluten Free

Serves: 1-2

Ingredients

SMOOTHIE BOWL

• 1 heaping cup (160 g) organic frozen mixed berries
• 1 (100 g) small ripe banana, sliced and frozen
• 2-3 Tbsp (30-45 ml) light coconut or almond milk, plus more as needed
• optional: 1 scoop plain or vanilla protein powder of choice*

TOPPINGS

• 1 Tbsp (5 g) shredded unsweetened coconut (desiccated)
• 1 Tbsp (12 g) chia seeds
• 1 Tbsp (10 g) hemp seeds
• optional: Granola
• optional: Fruit

Instructions

1. Add frozen berries and banana to a blender and blend on low until small bits remain - see photo.
2. Add a bit of coconut or almond milk and protein powder (optional), and blend on low again, scraping down sides as needed, until the mixture reaches a soft serve consistency (see photo).
3. Scoop into 1-2 serving bowls and top with desired toppings (optional). I prefer chia seeds, hemp seeds, and coconut, but strawberries, granola and a nut or seed butter would be great here, too!
4. Best when fresh, though leftovers keep in the freezer for 1-2 weeks. Let thaw before enjoying.
