Ingredients (Detailed & Fresh)
For the creamiest, dreamiest smoothie bowl, you’ll need:
Base Smoothie:
- 1 frozen banana (for natural sweetness & thickness)
- ½ cup Greek yogurt (or coconut yogurt for vegan)
- ½ cup frozen mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- ¼ cup milk (dairy, almond, or oat)
- 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup (optional)

Step-by-Step Instructions (Ultra Creamy & Perfect Every Time!)
1. Blend the Base
In a high-speed blender, combine the frozen banana, Greek yogurt, frozen berries, milk, and protein powder. Blend until ultra-smooth and thick—like soft-serve ice cream!
Pro Tip: If too thick, add a splash more milk. If too thin, add a few ice cubes or more frozen fruit.
2. Pour & Swirl
Transfer the smoothie to a wide, shallow bowl (the bigger, the better for topping space!). Use a spoon to create a smooth, even surface.
3. Add the Toppings
Now for the fun part—decorate like a pro!
- Sprinkle granola for crunch.
- Arrange fresh berries for color.
- Drizzle nut butter in a zigzag pattern.
- Finish with chia seeds, coconut flakes, or cacao nibs.
Pro Tip: Place toppings in small piles for a stunning visual effect—perfect for Instagram!
