Ingredients
  

For the smoothie base::

  • 3 bananas (frozen and sliced into 1-inch rounds for a thicker consistency)
  • 2 peaches
  • 1 cup pineapple
  • 1/4 cup coconut yogurt (I prefer So Delicious brand for its creamy texture)
  • 1.5 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 1/2 tsp blue spirulina powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • Pinch of sea salt

For the toppings::

  • 1/2 cup strawberries (hulled and sliced into thin vertical wedges)
  • 1/4 cup coconut shreds (I use Bob's Red Mill unsweetened flakes)

Instructions
 

  • Slice the bananas into 1-inch rounds and cut the peaches into chunks, removing the pit. Combine the frozen banana slices, peach chunks, and pineapple in a single layer on a baking sheet or freezer-safe container. Freeze for at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours—the longer freezing time ensures a thicker, creamier consistency in your final bowl and prevents the smoothie from becoming too diluted as the fruit thaws during blending.
  • Add the frozen fruit from Step 1 to your blender along with the coconut yogurt, maple syrup, blue spirulina powder, vanilla, and a pinch of sea salt. Blend on high speed for 60-90 seconds, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed, until the mixture reaches a thick, soft-serve ice cream consistency. I like to add the sea salt here because it amplifies the fruit flavors and balances the earthiness of the spirulina—you'd be surprised how much it brightens the bowl!
  • Divide the blended smoothie mixture from Step 2 into bowls, using a spoon to gently scoop and create a slightly textured surface. Arrange the sliced strawberries and coconut shreds on top in whatever pattern appeals to you. Eat immediately with a spoon while the texture is thick and creamy—this is what makes a smoothie bowl different from a regular smoothie, so savor that ice cream-like consistency!
