Notes
Use frozen fruit – This is key for the thick, smoothie bowl consistency. Avoid adding ice—it waters everything down.
Don’t over-blend – Blend just until smooth so the mixture stays thick and spoonable.
Get creative with toppings – Add texture with granola, toasted coconut, chia seeds, or a spoonful of peanut or almond butter.
Sweeten to taste – If your fruit is very ripe, you might not need as much maple syrup.
