A creamy and protein-packed strawberry banana smoothie bowl topped with crunchy granola, perfect for a quick and wholesome breakfast that keeps you full and satisfied.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (150 g) fresh or frozen hulled strawberries
  • 1 medium ripe banana (about 120 g), peeled and sliced
  • 1 scoop (approximately 30 g) vanilla or strawberry-flavored protein powder (whey or plant-based)
  • ½ cup (120 g) plain Greek yogurt (full-fat or low-fat; can substitute with dairy-free coconut yogurt)
  • ½ cup (120 ml) unsweetened milk (almond, oat, or cow’s milk)
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • ¼ cup (30 g) crunchy granola (preferably with nuts and seeds)
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds (optional)
  • Fresh mint or basil leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Rinse and hull about 1 cup (150 g) of fresh strawberries or use 1 cup frozen.
  2. Peel and slice one medium ripe banana (about 120 g).
  3. Add strawberries, banana, 1 scoop (30 g) protein powder, and ½ cup (120 g) Greek yogurt into a high-speed blender.
  4. Pour in ½ cup (120 ml) of your preferred unsweetened milk.
  5. If desired, add 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness.
  6. Blend on high speed for about 45 seconds until smooth and creamy, pausing to scrape down the sides as needed.
  7. Check the texture: it should be thick enough to eat with a spoon but scoopable. Add more milk if too thick or add ice/frozen fruit if too thin and blend again.
  8. Pour the smoothie into a bowl.
  9. Top generously with ¼ cup (30 g) crunchy granola, sprinkle chia seeds if using, and garnish with fresh mint or basil leaves.
  10. Serve immediately and enjoy.

Notes

Use frozen fruit for a thicker texture without watering down the smoothie. Vanilla-flavored whey protein blends smoother than plant-based powders, but plant-based can be used with extra liquid. Toast granola lightly if soft or stale. Avoid over-blending to keep fresh flavor. Optional additions include spinach for extra nutrients or a dollop of almond butter with cacao nibs for a twist.
