Smoothie Bowl

Instructions

1. 1

   Combine Smoothie Ingredients

   • Place the frozen mixed berries, frozen banana chunks, Greek yogurt, and chia seeds into a high-speed blender.
   • Pour in the almond milk, starting with a smaller amount (about 1/2 cup). Add the optional maple syrup if using.
2. 2

   Blend Until Thick and Creamy

   • Start the blender on its lowest speed, then gradually increase to high.
   • Use the blender's tamper to push the frozen fruit down into the blades. This is key for a thick consistency without adding too much liquid.
   • If the blender is struggling, add another tablespoon of almond milk at a time until it blends smoothly.
   • Blend for about 60-90 seconds, or until the mixture is completely smooth and has a texture similar to soft-serve ice cream. Avoid over-blending, which can warm it up and make it runny.
3. 3

   Assemble and Serve

   • Immediately pour the thick smoothie mixture into two chilled bowls.
   • Smooth the tops with a spatula or the back of a spoon.
   • Artfully arrange your toppings: create lines of sliced fresh banana, fresh berries, and granola.
   • Sprinkle with coconut flakes.
   • Serve immediately with a spoon and enjoy!
