Serves: 1 serving
Ingredients
- 1 banana, frozen
- 1/2 cup almond milk
- 1/2 cup spinach
- 1 tablespoon almond butter
- 1/4 cup granola
- Fresh fruits for topping
Instructions
- Remove the frozen banana from the freezer and let it sit at room temperature for 1-2 minutes to slightly soften.
- Peel the banana and break it into chunks to help with blending.
- Add the frozen banana chunks, almond milk, fresh spinach, and almond butter to a high-powered blender.

- Pour the blended smoothie into a serving bowl, using a spatula to ensure all contents are transferred.
- Spread the smoothie evenly in the bowl, creating a smooth surface.
- Sprinkle granola over the top of the smoothie in an even layer.
- Arrange fresh fruits of your choice on top of the granola - suggested options include sliced strawberries, blueberries, or sliced kiwi.
- Optional: Drizzle a small amount of honey or additional almond butter on top for extra flavor.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your nutrient-packed smoothie bowl.
Tips
- Choose Ripe Bananas: For the best flavor, use ripe bananas that are sweet and full of flavor. Freezing them at their peak ripeness will give your smoothie bowl a deliciously creamy texture.
- Blend in Stages: If your blender struggles with frozen ingredients, blend the almond milk and spinach first, then add the banana and almond butter for a smoother consistency.
- Customize Your Toppings: Feel free to get creative with your toppings! Try adding seeds, nuts, or a sprinkle of coconut for an extra crunch and nutritional boost.
- Adjust Consistency: If you prefer a thicker smoothie bowl, use less almond milk. For a thinner consistency, add a splash more almond milk or a few ice cubes during blending.
- Make it a Meal: To turn this smoothie bowl into a more filling meal, consider adding protein powder or Greek yogurt to the blend for an extra protein punch.
- Prep Ahead: For busy mornings, prep your ingredients the night before. Portion out your frozen banana and spinach in a bag, so all you have to do in the morning is blend and enjoy!
- Serve Fresh: This smoothie bowl is best enjoyed immediately after making it. The vibrant colors and fresh flavors are at their peak right after blending!
