Ingredients
Scale
Fruits
- 1.25 cups frozen wild blueberries (preferably Wyman’s for a smooth, seedless texture)
- 0.66 banana (sliced into 1/2-inch coins and frozen)
Liquids
- 1/2 cup almond milk (unsweetened vanilla, Almond Breeze preferred)
Sweeteners
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup
Instructions
- Prepare Frozen Ingredients: Slice the banana into 1/2-inch coins and freeze it along with the wild blueberries. This ensures a smooth, creamy texture when processed.
- Combine Ingredients: Place the frozen blueberries, frozen banana slices, almond milk, and maple syrup into your Ninja Creami pint or a high-powered blender.
- Process to Smoothie Bowl Consistency: Use the Ninja Creami on the smoothie bowl setting or blend until smooth and creamy. If using a blender, pulse until desired thickness is reached.
- Serve Immediately: Transfer the smoothie mixture into bowls and enjoy immediately for the best texture and flavor. Optionally, you can top with fresh fruit, nuts, or seeds as desired.
Notes
- Use frozen fruit to achieve the ideal thick and creamy smoothie bowl texture.
- Almond milk adds a subtle vanilla flavor but water or other plant-based milk can be substituted.
- Maple syrup is optional and can be adjusted to taste or omitted for less sweetness.
- For added protein or creaminess, consider adding a scoop of protein powder or Greek yogurt.
- Consume immediately for best taste and texture; smoothie bowls may thicken further if left to sit.
