Ingredients + Notes

This new smoothie bowl recipe uses simple ingredients. The only uncommon ingredient in this is moringa powder. If you don’t have this on hand, it can easily be skipped.

• Banana: A great way to ensure your smoothie bowl is nice and thick is to use a frozen banana. That being said, using fresh banana works fine too. (Just not as well as frozen.)

• Blueberries: I highly recommend using frozen blueberries if at all possible. Using fresh blueberries will work, but to achieve that nice thick texture, the more frozen fruit you can use, the better.

• Almond Butter: Adding nut butter to your smoothie increases healthy fat intake, keeping you fuller for longer.

• Moringa Powder: Moringa powder is a superfood. Therefore, it’s a great option for diversifying the vitamins and minerals you consume.

• Almond Milk: Almond great is a good milk alternative for smoothies. That being said, I recommend using whatever plant milk you have on hand.

Recipe Variations:

• Seeds: Chia seeds, hemp seeds, or ground flax seeds are all great options to add to this delicious smoothie bowl.

• Protein Powder: If you are looking for a high-protein smoothie adding protein powder is an easy way to accomplish this.

• Plant-Based Milk: This blueberry banana smoothie bowl calls for almond milk. However, whatever dairy-free milk you have on hand should work just fine. If you’re a fan of coconut, cashew, oat milk, etc., all are great options for this healthy breakfast recipe.

• Vegan Yogurt: Whether it be vegan Greek yogurt or plain yogurt, both offer an additional source of healthy fats to this recipe.

Topping Ideas

You don’t really need toppings on a smoothie bowl it makes it so luxurious and potentially more filling!

• Fresh Fruit: Fresh strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries are great toppings for this vegan smoothie bowl. Banana slices are one of my favorite toppings because we always have bananas on hand.

• Nut Butter: This recipe includes almond butter but adding a drizzle on top can make it extra luscious. Alternatively, peanut butter or cashew butter works well, too, for topping this perfect bowl.

• Coconut Flakes: Coconut flakes or coconut chips are a great addition to any smoothie bowl.

• Popped Quinoa: Popped quinoa is a fun topping and adds a different, fun texture to this vegan smoothie.

How To Make A Thick Smoothie Bowl

There are two key techniques to making a thick creamy smoothie bowl.

1. Use frozen fruit whenever possible.
   
   Pro tip: When your bananas are getting close to being overripe, peel them, break them in half, and freeze them. This way, you’ll always have some on hand. Bananas make a great smoothie base and add to the creaminess.
   
2. Use minimal to no liquid. The amount of liquid needed for a thick blueberry smoothie bowl depends on how robust your blender is. You can also get away with less liquid in a smoothie if your blender has a tamper.
   
   A Vitamix blender is the best blender for making smoothie bowls (In my opinion.).

Storage Tips

Smoothies are best enjoyed immediately following their making. However, if you make a bit extra, here are your best options.

Fridge

Store this vegan smoothie bowl in the fridge for 2-6 hours. (After that it really won’t be as good.)

Freezer

Pour extra smoothie into an empty ice cube tray and freeze.
