Description
Thick, creamy smoothie bowls packed with protein for a nutritious breakfast that tastes like dessert. Ready in just 5 minutes with customizable toppings.
Ingredients
Scale
- ¼ cup ice
- ¼ cup frozen blueberries
- ½ cup frozen strawberries
- ½ of a small banana, frozen
- 3 tablespoons vanilla or chocolate protein powder
- ¾ cup unsweetened almond milk
- Dash of salt
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to your blender in this order: ice, frozen blueberries, frozen strawberries, frozen banana, protein powder, almond milk, and salt. This layering helps the blender process everything smoothly.
- Blend until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides as needed. Avoid adding extra almond milk to maintain thick consistency. The mixture should be thicker than a regular smoothie.
- Pour the thick smoothie base into your serving bowl. Use a spatula to get every bit out of the blender.
- Add your favorite toppings: fresh berries, sliced bananas, homemade coconut granola, sliced almonds, coconut flakes, nut butter, honey, or chia seeds.
Notes
- Use frozen fruits straight from the freezer for the thickest consistency
- Start with less liquid and add more only if absolutely necessary
- Blend in short bursts to avoid overheating the mixture
- Pre-portion and freeze your fruit combinations in bags for quicker preparation
- Add protein powder last to prevent it from sticking to the blender walls
