Ingredients
Method
- Make sure all your ingredients, especially the raspberries, are well washed and drained.
- In a high-speed blender, combine the raspberries, coconut milk, banana, chia seeds, shredded coconut, and ice cubes.
- If you like it sweeter, add your preferred amount of maple syrup or agave nectar.
- Blend on high until the mixture is silky smooth.
- Pour the raspberry-coconut concoction into two bowls.
- Time to get creative! Add your favorite toppings. Sprinkle sliced almonds, a few extra raspberries, some granola, and perhaps a sprig of mint for that gourmet touch.
- Dive in while it's fresh and cold!
Notes
Tips:
1. You can freeze your bananas ahead of time for a creamier texture in your smoothie bowl.
2. If raspberries are out of season or too expensive, frozen raspberries work just as well.
3. Feel free to switch up the toppings based on your preferences or what you have on hand. Blueberries, sunflower seeds, or a sprinkle of cacao nibs can jazz things up.
4. For an extra protein punch, add a scoop of your favorite plant-based protein powder to the blender.
