Calling all smoothie lovers! Calling all chocolate lovers!
If you have got a sweet tooth but still want a healthy breakfast in the morning, I’ve got the perfect breakfast smoothie recipe for you!
Well, it’s actually a smoothie bowl. But it doubles as a thicker smoothie recipe too!
Either way, this Chocolate Peanut Butter Avocado Smoothie Bowl is a great way to satisfy those chocolate cravings while getting in healthy fats, protein, and a serving of fruit.
And let me tell you, it’s INCREDIBLE. It’s thick, creamy, and literally tastes like dessert.
Why you’ll love this recipe
Healthy ingredients: only real, plant based foods that truly nourish your body are in this smoothie bowl!
Simple ingredients: I bet you have most or all of the ingredients in your kitchen right now.
High protein: there are 36 grams of protein per smoothie bowl so you will stay fuller longer.
No added sugar: this peanut butter avocado smoothie recipe is naturally sweetened with bananas.
Customizable: there are so many different ways to make this recipe your own, like switching ingredients or adding your favorite toppings.
A super thick, creamy, dessert-like, delicious and nutritious “to-die-for” creation that’s fully customizable with all your favorite protein, fiber, healthy fat, and nutrient-dense toppings!
Smoothie bowls largely use the same ingredients as a regular smoothie but rely on more frozen elements and much less liquid. This means that, when blending, the fruits become a deliciously creamy, thick, soft-serve consistency.
You can then transfer this creamy and refreshing mixture to a bowl and its also so incredibly easy to transform it into a heartier, balanced meal with various toppings that provide protein, vitamins and nutrients to fuel your day.
This smoothie bowl recipe is one of my favorites – creamy, smooth, and naturally sweet. It kind of reminds me of ice cream (but healthy!) This is not a “replacement” for ice cream, but the creamy texture is similar!
Smoothie bowls are one of my favorite breakfasts! So, naturally, I adore this recipe. It’s refreshing, energizing, and a delicious start to the day. Alternatively, it makes a great afternoon pick-me-up.
Another reason you will love this smoothie bowl is because it’s macro friendly, which means there’s a balanced ratio of fats, carbs, and protein.
Melt sugar free chocolate chips with a bit of coconut oil to make a chocolate shell. Pour over your smoothie bowl, then flash freeze for 10 minutes before serving for the ultimate indulgence.
