Ingredients

Smoothie Bowl Ingredients:

  • 2 medium carrots, tops and tips removed, peeled & roughly chopped
  • 1 cup plain greek yogurt (the book calls for whole milk yogurt, but I went with a nonfat greek – personal preference!)
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats (if gluten free look for certified GF oats)
  • 2 tsp agave or honey
  • 1 tbsp ground flaxseed
  • 1/4 tsp pumpkin pie spice (or add more to taste)
  • 1 1/2 frozen sliced bananas

Toppings:

  • 2 tbsp shredded coconut
  • 2 tbsp chopped nuts of choice (I used slivered almonds)
  • 1/4 cup mixed color raisins

Instructions

Directions:

  • Combine all smoothie bowl ingredients except frozen banana in a blender. Blend until no chunks remain.
  • Add frozen banana and blend until smooth.
  • Pour into a bowl for one serving or split between two bowls for two servings.  Add toppings and enjoy!
