Ingredients
Scale
Fresh Produce:
- 2 frozen bananas
- 1 1/2 cups (360 milliliters) frozen strawberries
Liquids and Flavor Enhancers:
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) non-dairy milk
- 1 teaspoon (5 milliliters) vanilla extract
Optional Add-ins:
- Protein powder
- Almond butter
- Chia seeds
- Cacao powder
Instructions
- Combine frozen bananas, fresh strawberries, yogurt, and milk in a high-powered blender, ensuring all ingredients are cold for optimal smoothness.
- Pulse the mixture initially to break down larger fruit chunks, then blend on high speed for 45-60 seconds until achieving a thick, velvety consistency.
- Use a spatula or tamper to help integrate ingredients and prevent air pockets, creating a uniform texture without over-processing.
- Pour the vibrant, creamy mixture into a chilled serving bowl, using a silicone spatula to transfer every last drop.
- Artfully arrange toppings like sliced fresh strawberries, banana rounds, chia seeds, granola, and a light drizzle of honey across the surface for visual appeal and added texture.
- Serve immediately while the smoothie bowl maintains its rich, soft-serve like consistency, ensuring maximum flavor and temperature enjoyment.
Notes
- Adjust smoothie thickness by adding more liquid for a thinner consistency or freezing bananas beforehand for an extra creamy texture.
- Swap dairy milk with almond, oat, or coconut milk to create a vegan-friendly version that’s equally delicious and nutritious.
- Choose ripe, spotty bananas for maximum sweetness and use frozen strawberries to create a thicker, more refreshing smoothie bowl.
- Try different protein powders or add a tablespoon of chia seeds for extra nutrition and a fun texture boost.
