Berry Smoothie Bowl
A berry smoothie bowl is a thick, spoonable blend of frozen berries and banana topped with crunchy granola and fresh fruit. It is cold, creamy, and naturally sweet, making it a refreshing breakfast or snack you eat with a spoon. The vibrant purple base and colorful toppings make it as pretty as it is nourishing.

Ingredients
- 200 g frozen mixed berries
- 1 frozen banana
- 3 tbsp yogurt
- 50 ml milk
- to top granola and seeds
Instructions
- Add frozen mixed berries and a frozen banana to a blender along with just a splash of milk or juice to help it move.
- Blend on low and pulse, scraping down the sides as needed, until the mixture is thick, smooth, and scoopable rather than pourable.
- Add a tablespoon of liquid at a time only if the blender stalls, keeping the base as thick as soft serve.
- Pour the thick base into a chilled bowl and smooth the top with the back of a spoon to make a flat canvas for toppings.
- Arrange toppings such as granola, fresh berries, banana slices, coconut flakes, and a drizzle of nut butter in neat rows, then serve right away before it melts.
💡 Chef's tip
Use frozen fruit and only a splash of liquid so the base stays thick enough to hold toppings, because too much liquid turns it into a drinkable smoothie that cannot support garnishes.
The key is a much thicker blend than a drinkable smoothie: use frozen fruit and minimal liquid so it holds a spoon and the toppings sit on top instead of sinking.
