Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups spinach
- 1 banana
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1 tablespoon almond butter
- 1 tablespoon honey
- Toppings: granola, seeds, fresh fruit
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients: 2 cups of fresh spinach, 1 ripe banana, 1 cup of almond milk, 1 tablespoon of almond butter, and 1 tablespoon of honey. Prepare your toppings, which can include granola, seeds, and fresh fruit of your choice.
- In a blender, add the 2 cups of spinach. Spinach will provide the green color and a nutrient boost to your smoothie bowl.
- Peel the banana and break it into smaller pieces before adding it to the blender. The banana will add natural sweetness and creaminess to the smoothie.
- Pour in 1 cup of almond milk. This will help blend the ingredients smoothly and create a creamy texture.
- Add 1 tablespoon of almond butter for a rich, nutty flavor and a dose of healthy fats. This also contributes to the creaminess of the smoothie bowl.
- Finally, drizzle in 1 tablespoon of honey for added sweetness. You can adjust the amount of honey based on your taste preference.
- Blend all the ingredients on high speed until smooth and creamy. Make sure there are no lumps and the mixture is well combined.
- Once blended, pour the green smoothie into two bowls, dividing it evenly.
- Now it's time to add your toppings. Sprinkle granola over the top for crunch, add a mix of seeds for extra nutrition, and arrange fresh fruit slices for color and flavor.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing and nutritious Green Goddess Smoothie Bowl!
Tips
- Choose Ripe Ingredients: Use a very ripe banana for maximum natural sweetness and creamy texture.
- Blend Order Matters: Add liquids first (almond milk), then soft ingredients (banana, almond butter), and finally greens to ensure a smoother blend.
- Customize Your Toppings: Get creative with toppings! Try chia seeds, coconut flakes, sliced almonds, or even a drizzle of extra honey.
- Temperature Tip: For an extra thick and cold smoothie bowl, freeze your banana beforehand or add a few ice cubes.
- Nutrition Boost: Feel free to add a scoop of protein powder or a handful of spinach for an extra nutritional punch.
- Dairy-Free Options: This recipe is already dairy-free, making it perfect for vegans and those with lactose intolerance.
- Prep Ahead: You can prep your ingredients the night before to make morning preparation even quicker.
