Made with creamy yogurt and frozen bananas to give it the best consistency, the berries offer lots of flavor and antioxidants to make this a guilt-free meal option. Altogether, this Banana Berry Smoothie Bowl is such a healthy and delicious dish.

    Main Ingredients

    • Frozen Bananas. It's important to remember to freeze these ripe bananas so that the smoothie bowl is sweet and has a smooth texture.
    • Frozen Berry Mix. I use a store-bought mix of wild blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries. Any berry mix would work here though.
    • Yogurt. You can use plant-based or regular yogurt here. Using yogurt instead of milk adds extra health benefits and creaminess. If you use Greek yogurt, you will also increase the protein. That said, you can still use milk if you prefer, or you can skip this ingredient altogether.
    • Toppings. Use fresh fruits, nuts, and seeds that you have on hand. A spoonful of nut butter would also add some extra protein and flavor to this recipe.

    How to Make Banana Berry Smoothie Bowl

    1. Place the frozen bananas and berries into a food processor and pulse until small crumbles are formed. Give a quick scrape to get everything off the lid and sides for better blending.

    2. Add the yogurt and process again until it reaches a smooth texture with no chunks.

    Topping Ideas for Smoothie Bowls

    • Fruit. Add sliced bananas, strawberries, or pineapple. Layer on more berries, like blueberries and raspberries. You can also use cubes of mango or any other favored fruit.
    • Nuts. Sprinkle almond slivers, nut butter, or cashew pieces on top of your smoothie bowl. This gives it a great protein boost that will also increase satiation.
    • Seeds. This Banana Berry Smoothie Bowl tastes great with lots of different seeds, including hemp, chia, flax, or sesame. You could also add wheat germ.

    How to Freeze Bananas

    Peel the bananas. Cut the bananas into ½ to ¾-inch thick slices.
    Lay the banana slices in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with wax paper. Freeze for about two hours, or until the slices are solid.
    Then, transfer the frozen slices to a freezer-safe bag or container, and return to the freezer. Label the container with the date.

    Bananas will keep in the freezer for up to six months.

    Can You Make This Ahead of Time?

    This smoothie bowl cannot be made ahead of time, though you can prep and assemble the ingredients for quicker blending in the morning. If you try to make it too long before you serve and eat it, it will begin to separate and the frozen fruits will completely thaw, leaving a runny and less delicious bowl.

    It's so important to have quick and easy recipes at your fingertips so delicious and healthy foods are simple to make. Starting your day with this Banana Berry Smoothie Bowl will give you a nutritious boost that will keep you going. And when the 2pm munchies are calling, this smoothie bowl is the perfect remedy.
