A quick and nourishing smoothie bowl featuring frozen mixed berries, protein powder, and crunchy granola, perfect for busy mornings and packed with nutrients.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup frozen mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
  • 1 scoop vanilla or unflavored protein powder (plant-based recommended)
  • ยฝ cup unsweetened almond milk (120 ml)
  • ยฝ ripe banana (frozen or fresh)
  • ยผ cup Greek yogurt or cottage cheese (optional, 60 g)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • ยผ cup crunchy granola (30 g)
  • A handful fresh berries for topping (optional)

Instructions

  1. Gather your ingredients: 1 cup frozen mixed berries, half a banana, 1 scoop protein powder, ยฝ cup almond milk, and optionally ยผ cup Greek yogurt or cottage cheese.
  2. Add the frozen berries, banana, protein powder, and almond milk to the blender. Optionally add Greek yogurt or cottage cheese for extra creaminess. Blend on high for about 45 seconds until smooth but still thick.
  3. Check the consistency. If too thick, add almond milk 1 tablespoon at a time. If too thin, add more frozen berries or a little ice to thicken.
  4. Pause the blender and stir in 1 tablespoon chia seeds. Let sit for 3-5 minutes to soften and thicken if desired.
  5. Taste and sweeten with 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup if needed, then blend briefly to combine.
  6. Pour the smoothie into a serving bowl using a spatula to scrape it all out, creating a thick base.
  7. Top generously with crunchy granola and fresh berries. Add other toppings like sliced almonds, coconut flakes, or nut butter if desired.
  8. Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.

Notes

Use frozen fruit for thickness and creaminess. Add granola just before serving to keep it crunchy. For dairy-free, skip yogurt/cottage cheese and add extra almond milk or dairy-free protein powder. You can prep the smoothie base ahead and add toppings fresh. Avoid over-blending to maintain texture.
