Tips for the best orange banana smoothie bowl
- Freeze the banana in slices the night before for a thicker, colder bowl.
- Remove as much of the white pith from the orange as you can: it makes the smoothie bitter.
- Start with less orange juice and add more only if the blender gets stuck.
- Add the granola last, just before eating, so it stays crunchy.
Variations
- Swap the coconut yogurt for soy yogurt for more protein.
- Use mango instead of banana for a tropical version.
- Swap the peanut butter for almond butter or tahini, or leave it out for a lighter bowl.
- Nut-free: use sunflower seed butter and a nut-free granola.
Storing
Eat right away. To save time, slice and freeze the banana and orange segments ahead, then blend with the yogurt and juice in the morning.
Frequently asked questions
Is this smoothie bowl vegan?
Yes. Check that your granola is vegan: some are sweetened with honey.
Can I use orange juice only, without a fresh orange?
Yes, but the fresh orange adds body and texture. With juice only, use a frozen banana to keep it thick.
How do I make a smoothie bowl without a high-speed blender?
Let frozen fruit thaw for 5 minutes, add liquid a little at a time and stop to stir often.
What toppings go on a smoothie bowl?
Fresh fruit, granola, seeds like chia, hemp or pumpkin, coconut flakes or a drizzle of nut butter.
