Ingredients
- 1 cup frozen mixed berries or any frozen fruit of your choice
- ½ cup Greek yogurt plain or vanilla
- ½ frozen banana
- ¼ cup milk dairy or non-dairy
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup optional
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
Topping Suggestions:
- Fresh berries
- Granola
- Sliced banana
- Chia seeds
- Coconut flakes
- Nut butter drizzle
- Sliced almonds
Instructions
- Prep your ingredients: Make sure your fruit is frozen solid. If using fresh fruit, add a handful of ice cubes to achieve the right consistency. Take your yogurt out of the fridge just a minute before blending.
- Add ingredients to blender: Start with the yogurt at the bottom, then add the frozen banana, frozen berries, milk, and any sweetener you're using. This order helps the blender work more efficiently.
- Blend on low first: Start your blender on the lowest setting to break up the frozen fruit. Use your tamper if you have one, or stop and scrape down the sides with a spatula.
- Increase speed gradually: Once the mixture starts moving, increase to medium-high speed. Blend until smooth and thick, about 30-60 seconds total. The mixture should be thick enough that a spoon stands up in it.
- Check consistency: If it's too thick to blend, add milk one tablespoon at a time. If it's too thin, add more frozen fruit or a few ice cubes.
- Transfer to bowl: Pour your smoothie bowl with yogurt into a wide, shallow bowl. This gives you more surface area for those beautiful toppings!
- Add toppings: Arrange your toppings in sections or rows for that picture-perfect look. Work quickly before the bowl starts to melt.
- Enjoy immediately: Grab a spoon and dig in while it's still thick and cold!
