10 -
1 teaspoon chia seeds or flaxseeds
11 -

# Steps:
01 -
Ensure your banana is frozen for optimal texture. If using fresh, slice and freeze for at least 2 hours before blending.
02 -
In a high-speed blender, combine frozen banana, frozen mixed berries, Greek yogurt, milk, nut butter, and vanilla extract. Add honey or maple syrup if desired for additional sweetness.
03 -
Blend on low speed, gradually increasing to medium. Add minimal additional milk if mixture is too thick to blend, maintaining a spoonable consistency.
04 -
Ensure smoothie is thick and creamy, not runny. If too thin, incorporate additional frozen berries or ice cubes and blend again.
05 -
Spoon the smoothie mixture into a bowl, using the back of the spoon to create an even surface.
06 -
Garnish with granola, sliced fresh fruit, chia or flaxseeds, coconut flakes, and a drizzle of nut butter as desired.
07 -
Enjoy the smoothie bowl promptly while thick and cold for optimal texture and flavor.
# Notes:
01 -
For best results, consume immediately after preparation to maintain ideal temperature and consistency.
02 -
The thickness of the smoothie base is crucial - it should be spoonable rather than drinkable.
