Ingredients
  

Smoothie Base
  • 2 cups frozen bananas sliced
  • 1 cup frozen berries mixed variety
  • 1 2 cup unsweetened almond milk adjust for texture
  • 1 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon optional
Toppings
  • 1 4 cup fresh strawberries sliced
  • 1 4 cup granola for crunch
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds optional topping
  • 1 tablespoon shredded coconut unsweetened

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Blender
  • Freezer
  • Measuring Cups
  • Serving Bowls
  • Spoon

Method
 

  1. Add frozen bananas, frozen berries, almond milk, and cinnamon into a blender.
  2. Blend slowly at first, then increase speed until mixture becomes thick and creamy.
  3. Stop blending occasionally to scrape sides for even texture and smooth consistency throughout.
  4. Add slightly more almond milk only if mixture feels too thick for blending properly.
  5. Spoon smoothie mixture into serving bowls and smooth tops gently with a spoon.
  6. Arrange strawberries, granola, chia seeds, and coconut over bowls before serving immediately.

Notes

Use less liquid for thicker spoonable bowls or more liquid for softer texture. Freeze fruit ahead for easier blending and colder consistency. Assemble toppings immediately before serving to keep crunch fresh. Customize flavors with mango, cocoa powder, or peanut butter powder. Refrigerate leftovers briefly although texture tastes best fresh.
