CHOCOLATE PROTEIN SMOOTHIE BOWL (VEGAN)
This Chocolate Protein Smoothie Bowl is thick, healthy, and packed with protein. It has a rich chocolatey flavor and creamy consistency. It is perfect as a quick breakfast or whenever you fancy something sweet.
Ingredients
Smoothie:
- 140 g (=approx. 1 large banana) frozen bananas
- 150 ml (=2/3 cup) unsweetened almond milk
- 6 g (=2 tsp) ground flaxseed
- 30 g (=approx. 2 tbsp) vegan protein powder*
- 15 g (=2 tbsp) unsweetened cocoa powder
- 10 g carob powder, (optional)
Optional additions:
- 30 g (=2 tbsp) vegan yogurt
- 17 g (=3 tbsp) quick oats
- 10 g (=2 tsp) natural peanut butter
- 1/2 tsp ground coffee
- a handful baby spinach
Toppings Suggestions:
- granola
- chia seeds
- hemp seeds
- goji berries
- cocoa nibs
- shredded coconut or coconut flakes
- peanut butter or almond butter
- fresh fruit - strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries
Instructions
- To the high-speed blender, add sliced frozen bananas, unsweetened almond milk, ground flaxseed, vegan protein powder, unsweetened cocoa powder, and carob powder.
- Blend on low until it starts to combine. Scrape down the sides. Then blend again – now you can add more power – and blend until smooth and creamy. If the consistency is too thick, add a little bit of plant milk or water.
- Transfer to a bowl and your favorite toppings.
Notes
*Due to the bananas, the smoothie is sweet enough. Therefore, I would recommend using unsweetened protein powder. I like to use pea protein because it is neutral in flavor.
