Frozen Smoothie Bowl with Homemade Granola

September 01

Smoothie bowls are California’s latest “in thing” and I’ve spotted these frozen smoothie bowls more than once.  Having ice cream scoops of smoothie does feel a little like having dessert for breakfast but with home made granola, it’s a novelty worth trying.

  • serves Serves 2
  • time 30 mins + freezing time

Method

  1. 1. To make the smoothie place all the ingredients (except the chia seeds) in a high speed blender and blend until smooth. Mix through the chia seeds and transfer to a container and freezer for at least two hours or overnight.
  2. 2. For the granola, preheat the oven to 180°C/350°/Gas Mark 4.
  3. 3. Melt the coconut oil in a small pan over a low heat, allow to cool slightly. Combine all the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl, drizzle over the maple syrup and coconut oil and mix through. Empty the contents onto a large baking tray lined with parchment paper and spread out evenly.
  4. 4. Toast in the oven for 15 minutes, but keep an eye on it as ovens vary – you are looking for the oats to just turn a light golden brown. Give them a mix halfway through the cooking time, remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.
  5. 5. To serve, use an ice cream scoop to divide the frozen smoothie between two serving bowls and scatter with the granola and berries.
