Why You'll Love this Green Smoothie Bowl
If you've never had a smoothie bowl, it's similar to a smoothie but a little bit thicker and feels more filling - since you eat it with a spoon, not a straw. It's perfectly sweet and creamy from the frozen banana and just a bit of maple syrup.

Green Smoothie Bowl Ingredients
- Frozen ripe bananas - you'll want to use frozen bananas as they help with the soft serve ice cream, creamy texture. Cut each banana into four pieces (or small rounds) and freeze on a parchment-lined tray for a few hours. You don't want to freeze the banana whole and with the peel. It's extremely difficult to peel and cut once frozen.
- Mixed leafy greens - use your favorite mixed greens. Kale and fresh spinach work great and don't alter the flavor.
- Coconut milk - you can use your favorite dairy or non-dairy milk. Almond milk and oat milk also work great!
- Maple syrup - just a bit of maple syrup helps to add a little extra sweetness in addition to the banana.

How to Make this Green Smoothie Bowl
Using a high-speed blender, add your smoothie ingredients to the blender. Blend on high. It will take about 3 minutes and a few times stopping to scrape down the sides of the blender before the smoothie is blended entirely and has a soft-serve ice cream consistency.
Once blended, pour into a bowl and top with your favorite topping. These could include fresh fruit, nuts, nut butter, seeds, cacao nibs, coconut flakes, or granola.

Green Smoothie Bowl Toppings
The fun part about a smoothie bowl is adding toppings! You can add whatever you would like. Just about any toppings will work with this recipe. Here are a few great options.
- Chia seeds - if you don't leave your bowl sit too long, chia seeds add a nice mild crunch.
- Nut butter - Nut butters like peanut butter and almond butter add a great flavor.
- Shredded coconut - Another topping that adds just the slightest crunch and texture with a great taste.
- Granola - add your favorite granola for an extra special and extra hearty breakfast. We love this homemade granola.
- Dried or fresh fruit - fresh kiwis, dried goji berries, and/or strawberries are great in this smoothie bowl.
