Ingredients

Smoothie Base

• 1 cup (240 g) Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla, whole or low-fat)
• 1 cup (150 g) mixed frozen berries (e.g., blueberries, strawberries, raspberries)
• 1 medium banana, sliced
• 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup (optional, adjust to taste)
• 1/4 cup (60 ml) milk of choice (dairy or plant-based), plus more if needed

Toppings

• 1/2 cup (75 g) fresh mixed berries
• 2 tablespoons chia seeds
• 1/4 cup (25 g) granola (gluten-free if needed)
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened coconut flakes
• 1 tablespoon sliced almonds or other nuts (optional)

Instructions

Step 1

In a blender, combine Greek yogurt, frozen berries, banana, honey or maple syrup, and milk. Blend until smooth and thick. Add more milk if needed for desired consistency.

Divide the smoothie base evenly into two bowls.

Step 3

Arrange fresh mixed berries, chia seeds, granola, coconut flakes, and sliced almonds on top of each bowl.

Step 4

Serve immediately and enjoy.

Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung

For the thickest possible smoothie base, ensure your berries are fully frozen before blending. If you prefer a thinner consistency, simply whisk in an extra tablespoon of milk at a time until you reach the desired texture.

Varianten und Anpassungen

To make this bowl vegan, substitute the Greek yogurt and milk with your favorite plant-based alternatives. For extra flavor and healthy fats, try drizzling the finished bowl with almond butter or sprinkling on some cacao nibs.

Serviervorschläge

While mixed berries are classic, feel free to use any combination of seasonal fruits like sliced kiwi, mango, or peaches. Serve in chilled bowls to keep the smoothie from melting too quickly in warmer weather.

Chop vegetables, slice meats, and prep ingredients easily for everyday cooking and homemade recipes.

Frequently Asked Recipe Questions

→ Can I make this bowl vegan?

Yes, simply substitute Greek yogurt with your favorite plant-based yogurt option like coconut, almond, or soy yogurt. Use maple syrup instead of honey and ensure your granola is certified vegan.

→ How do I adjust the consistency?

Add more milk if the mixture is too thick to blend, or reduce milk for a thicker, ice cream-like consistency. You can also add more frozen fruit to make it thicker or fresh fruit to thin it out.

→ Can I prepare this ahead of time?

The smoothie base can be blended the night before and stored in the refrigerator. However, add toppings just before serving to maintain their crunch and texture. The base may thicken overnight, so stir well and add a splash of milk if needed.

→ What other toppings work well?

Try sliced almonds, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, hemp hearts, cacao nibs, peanut butter drizzle, fresh sliced banana, kiwi, mango, or seasonal fruit. Granola clusters, toasted coconut, or a dollop of nut butter also add delicious variety.

→ Is this gluten-free?

Yes, as long as you use certified gluten-free granola and check that all other ingredients are gluten-free. The base ingredients—Greek yogurt, berries, banana, and chia seeds—are naturally gluten-free.

→ Can I use fresh berries instead of frozen?

Fresh berries work but will create a thinner consistency. For a thick, creamy texture, use frozen berries or add a handful of ice cubes when blending fresh fruit. You can also freeze fresh berries beforehand for the best results.
