It’s been raining for the past three days and has made me feel home sick for London. It’s funny living in Queensland, everyone loves it when it rains!
It can feel so rare at times, so when it’s a weekend and it’s pouring outside there’s no better feeling than snuggling up watching movies all day.
It also makes me crave indulgent foods, so this cookies and cream smoothie bowl was the perfect accompaniment 😍
Serves 2 V DF GF RSF
Ingredients:
3 frozen bananas
Handful ice cubes
1 tbsp vanilla protein powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp hemp seeds
Pinch himalayan sea salt
1 tbsp maple syrup
Splash almond milk
1 chocolate cookie (homemade)
Toppings:
Chocolate cookie (homemade)
Cacao nibs
Coconut yoghurt
Coconut flakes
Banana
Method:
Add smoothie ingredients to the blender and blend until just combined and creamy. Add the cookie and blend again. Serve into a bowl and add toppings.
Tips:
Use a high speed blender/ food processor. If it seems a bit empty in your jug (this recipe is based off a vitamix), add more banana.
If you want your smoothie bowl to stay frozen longer, try use a plastic style bowl, I like to place mine in the freezer just before making my smoothies!
Also have all your toppings and fruit already chopped and ready to assemble beforehand, you basically want to pour it out and go!
