Instructions
Prepare the Smoothie:
Blend Ingredients: In a blender, combine the coconut milk, frozen pineapple chunks, sliced banana, Greek yogurt, honey (if using), and vanilla extract (if using). Blend until smooth and creamy. If the smoothie is too thick, add a bit more coconut milk to reach your desired consistency.
Taste and Adjust: Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness if needed by adding more honey or maple syrup.
Assemble the Smoothie Bowl:
Pour Smoothie: Divide the smoothie mixture evenly between two bowls.
Add Toppings: Top each smoothie bowl with granola, sliced fresh strawberries, sliced banana, shredded coconut, chia seeds or flaxseeds, and extra pineapple chunks if desired.
Serve:
Serve: Enjoy the smoothie bowl immediately as a refreshing breakfast, snack, or light dessert.
Tips:
Consistency: For a thicker smoothie bowl, use frozen fruit and less liquid. For a thinner consistency, add more coconut milk.
Customization: Feel free to customize the toppings with your favorite fruits, nuts, seeds, or a drizzle of nut butter.
Sweetness: Adjust the sweetness of the smoothie based on your taste preferences. Adding a bit of honey or maple syrup can enhance the flavors if needed.
