🥄 How to make a mango smoothie bowl
A mango smoothie bowl is a delicious and healthy way to start your day!
To make one, add a frozen banana and coconut milk to a food processor or high-speed blender and pulse or blend until smooth.

🍓 Variations
- Add in ½ cup of strawberries to make a strawberry mango smoothie bowl. You may need to add an extra teaspoon of milk, depending on whether the strawberries are fresh or frozen.
- Add some green ingredients. Adding spinach or kale to your smoothie bowl will give it an extra boost of nutrients. If you're not a fan of green smoothies, you can also add avocado for even more creaminess and healthy fats.
🍽 Equipment
To make this mango smoothie bowl, you will need a food processor or high-powered blender.
🌡️ Storage
If you have any leftovers from your mango smoothie bowl (or if you make a big batch ahead of time), the best way to store it is in the freezer.
Place the smoothie bowl in an airtight freezer-safe bag or airtight container and place it in the freezer.
Remove it 10-15 minutes before you want to eat it. This will give it time to thaw slightly and be a perfect consistency.
Store toppings separately in their own container so they don't get soggy.
🤩 Top tips
A mango banana smoothie bowl is the perfect healthy summer breakfast or snack. Some of my top tips are:
- Use frozen fruit. This will give your smoothie bowl a thick, 'ice cream-like' consistency that is perfect for spooning into. For example, I like to peel and dice my banana the night before and place it in the freezer.
- Adding a little bit of liquid is important to help the frozen fruit blend more easily. I usually use coconut or almond milk, but you can use any kind of milk or juice.
- Be sure to top your smoothie bowl with some fresh fruit and/or nuts for extra flavor and texture. Some of my favorite smoothie bowl toppings are fresh fruit, shredded coconut, and chia seeds.
