Base Ingredients
- 1 frozen banana
- 3/4 cup frozen pineapple

- 1/3 cup full fat coconut milk (shaken)
- 1/4 teaspoon coconut extract (optional)
- 1 scoop (25g) vanilla protein powder (optional)
Toppings

Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather all frozen fruits, coconut milk, coconut extract, and protein powder if using to ensure a smooth blending process.
- Blend the Base: Add all base ingredients into a high-speed blender. Blend on high for 1-2 minutes until the mixture reaches a smooth and thick consistency. For blenders with lower power, blend longer or add an extra splash of coconut milk to aid blending.
- Assemble the Bowl: Pour the smoothie mixture into a bowl. Arrange your choice of toppings such as mango slices, banana slices, granola, chia seeds, cherries, nut butter, and coconut flakes on top for added texture and flavor.
Notes
- Using frozen fruits is essential to get the thick smoothie bowl consistency without adding ice.
- If you prefer a thinner smoothie, add more coconut milk gradually.
- The coconut extract is optional but enhances the tropical coconut flavor.
- Protein powder is optional and can be omitted for a vegan or lighter option.
- Feel free to customize toppings according to your preference or dietary needs.
