Description
A thick, creamy Healthy Banana Oat Breakfast Smoothie Bowl made with frozen bananas, rolled oats, and Greek yogurt. Naturally sweet, high fiber, and easy to customize with your favorite toppings.
Ingredients
2 medium ripe bananas, sliced and frozen (240 g)
1/2 cup rolled oats (45 g)
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (120 g)
1/2 cup milk of choice, plus more as needed (120 to 180 ml)
1 tbsp chia seeds, optional (10 g)
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon, optional
1/2 tsp vanilla extract, optional
Toppings: sliced banana, berries, granola, nut or seed butter, coconut flakes, cacao nibs (as desired)
Instructions
1. Add the frozen bananas, rolled oats, Greek yogurt, and 1/2 cup milk to a high speed blender.
2. Add chia seeds, cinnamon, and vanilla if using.
3. Blend on high until very thick and creamy, using a tamper if needed.
4. If the blender stalls, add milk 1 tablespoon at a time until it blends smoothly but stays spoon thick.
5. Taste and adjust: add a pinch more cinnamon or a splash more vanilla if desired.
6. Pour into a chilled bowl and smooth the top.
7. Add toppings and serve immediately.
Notes
Frozen bananas are the key to a thick, spoonable smoothie bowl. If your bananas are not frozen, add 1 cup ice (about 140 g) and reduce milk slightly.
Start with less liquid for the thickest texture, then add small splashes only as needed.
For dairy free, use plant based yogurt and milk.
For gluten free, use certified gluten free oats.
To boost protein, add 1 scoop protein powder (about 25 to 30 g) and increase milk as needed.
Best enjoyed right away. If storing, freeze up to 24 hours and reblend before serving for best texture.
