The Breakfast Smoothie Bowl

May 30, 2014 3 Comments

I must have been living under a rock for awhile, because I hadn’t heard of smoothie bowls until last month.

Now, they seem to be popping up everywhere I look! Not that I’m complaining or anything…

Smoothie-Bowl

What is a smoothie bowl, you ask? Simple: a smoothie – in a bowl (made a bit thicker). Yes, I’m serious. Yes, it’s way more fun than it sounds. Yes, it’s just as tasty in a bowl as it would be in a glass.

This was my first every smoothie bowl that I made last week. It’s just frozen blueberries, a large banana, some ground flax seed and a bit of almond milk, topped with homemade granola, coconut and fresh raspberries.

It did not disappoint. I love that I can add all kinds of toppings, which you can’t really do with a “regular” smoothie (drinking shredded coconut and granola would probably not work very well)!

Now, what can I make next? If you’ve made smoothie bowls before, what do you like putting in yours?

Author: Vegan Insanity
Recipe type: Smoothie
Serves: 1
Ingredients
  • 1 large ripe banana
  • 1 cup frozen mixed berries
  • 1 tbsp ground flax seed (optional)
  • 1 cup non-dairy milk (I used almond)
  • Topping of choice (I used granola, coconut and fresh raspberries)
Instructions
  1. Add all ingredients (except toppings) to your blender, and blend until smooth & creamy. You want it to be a bit thicker than a traditional smoothie that you would drink.
  2. If the mixture is too thin, add another ½-1 banana or more berries.
  3. Scoop mixture into your bowl and top with your toppings of choice. Eat with a spoon!

    What a fabulous idea! I love smoothies but find they don’t fill me up by themselves. Adding some granola and berries and making this more of a “Bowl” is an awesome idea! I can’t wait to try it! Thanks!

    Hi Cassie! Would you mind if I used your smoothie bowl in a round-up post I am running on my blog? It’s gorgeous! I wanted to ask permission before using your image and linking back to your website.

    Thank you!
