Serves: 1 serving
Ingredients
- 1 banana
- 1 tablespoon carob powder
- 1/2 cup coconut milk
- 1/4 cup oats
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- Fresh fruits for topping
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 1 ripe banana, 1 tablespoon of carob powder, 1/2 cup of coconut milk, 1/4 cup of oats, 1 tablespoon of chia seeds, and fresh fruits for topping.
- Peel the banana and break it into smaller pieces to make it easier to blend.
- In a blender, combine the banana pieces, carob powder, coconut milk, oats, and chia seeds.
- Blend the mixture on high speed until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency. If the mixture is too thick, you can add a little more coconut milk to achieve your desired texture.
- Once blended, taste the smoothie base. If you prefer it sweeter, you can add a touch of maple syrup or agave nectar, although the banana should provide sufficient sweetness.
- Pour the smoothie mixture into a bowl, smoothing the top with a spatula or the back of a spoon.
- Now it’s time to add your fresh fruit toppings. Slice your choice of fruits such as strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, or banana, and arrange them artistically on top of the smoothie bowl.
- If desired, sprinkle additional chia seeds, granola, or nuts over the top for added texture and crunch.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Smoothie Bowl Vegan à la Caroube!
