Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1 orange, peeled
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- Coconut flakes for topping
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 1 cup of fresh blueberries, 1 peeled orange, 1 cup of coconut milk, 1 tablespoon of chia seeds, and coconut flakes for topping.
- In a blender, add the blueberries, peeled orange, coconut milk, and chia seeds. Make sure the orange is cut into smaller segments if necessary to ensure easy blending.
- Blend the mixture on high speed until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency. This should take about 1-2 minutes. If the mixture is too thick, you can add a little more coconut milk to help it blend smoothly.
- Once blended, taste the smoothie mixture. If you desire a sweeter flavor, you can add a little honey or maple syrup, but this is optional as the fruits are naturally sweet.
- Pour the smoothie mixture evenly into two bowls. Use a spatula to scrape out all the contents from the blender for maximum yield.
- Now it’s time to add your toppings! Sprinkle coconut flakes generously over the top of each smoothie bowl.
- If you like, you can also add extra blueberries or orange segments on top for added texture and visual appeal.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing blueberry orange coconut smoothie bowl!
Tips
- Use Fresh Ingredients: For the best flavor, opt for fresh blueberries and a ripe orange. Frozen blueberries can also be used for a thicker texture, but fresh ones will give you that vibrant taste.
- Adjust Consistency: If your smoothie bowl is too thick, simply add a splash more coconut milk until you reach your desired consistency. Conversely, if it’s too thin, blend in a few more blueberries or a banana for creaminess.
- Sweeten to Taste: The natural sweetness of the fruits usually suffices, but if you prefer a sweeter bowl, consider adding a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup. Taste before adding to ensure it meets your preference!
- Experiment with Toppings: While coconut flakes are a fantastic topping, feel free to get creative! Add granola, nuts, or even a drizzle of nut butter for added texture and flavor.
- Serve Immediately: Smoothie bowls are best enjoyed right after preparation to maintain their freshness and vibrant colors. Garnish with extra fruit right before serving for a stunning presentation!
