Ingredients

Frozen Mango Chunks: Sweet, tropical mango frozen to create a thick and creamy smoothie base packed with vitamin C.
Frozen Raspberries: Tart frozen berries add beautiful color and antioxidant-rich flavor to your bowl.
Frozen Banana: Provides natural sweetness and creaminess; peel bananas after ripening and freeze for best texture.
Plant-Based Milk: Use almond, coconut, or soy milk to adjust your smoothie’s consistency and add a subtle nutty or creamy flavor.
Hemp Seeds (Optional): Nutty-flavored seeds rich in plant protein and omega-3s, perfect for boosting nutrition.

Instructions

Gather and Prepare Ingredients: Collect all the frozen fruits and plant-based milk needed for the smoothie. Ensure your banana is peeled before freezing to avoid any bitterness in the blend.
Combine Ingredients in Blender: Place mango chunks, raspberries, frozen banana, and hemp seeds into a high-speed blender. Add 1/2 cup of plant milk to start for a thick texture and more if needed.
Blend Until Smooth: Blend on high speed until the mixture is creamy and smooth. Stop and scrape down the sides as needed to ensure even blending of frozen fruits.
Adjust Consistency: Add more plant milk gradually if you prefer a thinner consistency, blending briefly after each addition. Less liquid makes a scoopable, spoon-friendly bowl.
Serve and Add Toppings: Pour the smoothie into a bowl and add toppings like fresh fruit, granola, seeds, or nuts. These provide contrasting textures and extra nutrients to your breakfast.

You Must Know

Always use frozen fruits for the signature thick, creamy texture of smoothie bowls, especially bananas for natural sweetness and smoothness.
To prepare frozen bananas, peel ripe bananas (yellow skin with brown specks), then freeze in an airtight container; use within one month.

Storage Tips

This smoothie bowl is best enjoyed fresh, but you can store any leftovers in the fridge for up to 24 hours. If it thickens, stir in extra plant milk to loosen before serving again.

Serving Suggestions

Top with crunchy granola, sliced fresh fruit, coconut flakes, or a drizzle of nut butter for added flavor and texture. This smoothie bowl pairs wonderfully with a hot cup of herbal tea or coffee.

Professional Tips

To create an extra creamy texture, blend frozen fruits separately to break them down before adding liquid.
Experiment with plant milk varieties; coconut gives tropical notes, while almond adds nuttiness without overpowering fruit flavors.
If you like it sweeter, add a touch of maple syrup or agave, but ripe banana usually provides enough natural sweetness.
