🥗 Nutrition per serving
🛒 Ingredients
- 1 cup (150g) frozen mixed berries (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries)
- 1 medium frozen banana, sliced
- ½ cup (120ml) Greek yogurt (or coconut yogurt for vegan)
- ¼ cup (60ml) almond milk or oat milk — add gradually
- 1 tbsp chia seeds
- Toppings: fresh berries, granola, sliced banana, honey drizzle, coconut flakes
- Optional boost: 1 tsp acai powder or 1 tbsp protein powder
👩🍳 Instructions
Add frozen berries, frozen banana, Greek yogurt and chia seeds to a high-speed blender. Start with just 2 tbsp of milk — the key is keeping it as thick as possible.
Blend on high, using the tamper if your blender has one. Add milk one tablespoon at a time only if needed to keep it moving. Stop as soon as it’s smooth — it should be thick enough to eat with a spoon, not drink.
Pour into a wide bowl immediately. Work quickly — the frozen base melts fast.
Arrange toppings in neat rows or sections — fresh berries, granola, banana slices, a sprinkle of chia seeds and a light drizzle of honey. Serve immediately.
💡 The thickness secret: Use fully frozen fruit — never fresh or partially thawed. Freeze your banana in slices the night before. The colder and more frozen your ingredients, the thicker your bowl. If it’s too runny, add more frozen banana rather than less liquid.
