Cookie Monster Smoothie Bowl (Ready in 5 Minutes!)
A thick, creamy smoothie bowl that tastes like cookie dough for breakfast! Naturally sweetened with banana, colored blue with spirulina, and topped with chocolate chips and cookie crumbles. Ready in 5 minutes and perfect for kids and adults alike.
Ingredients
For the Smoothie Base:
- 2 frozen bananas sliced
- 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons cashew butter
- 1/4 cup milk of choice
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon blue spirulina powder
- 1 pinch sea salt
For the Toppings:
- 2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips
- 1 chocolate chip cookie crumbled
- 1 tablespoon shredded coconut
- 1/4 banana sliced
- 2 tablespoons granola
Instructions
- Add Greek yogurt, milk, cashew butter, vanilla extract, sea salt, and blue spirulina powder to your blender. Top with frozen banana slices.
- Blend on low speed, then gradually increase to high. Blend for 60-90 seconds until thick and creamy, like soft-serve ice cream. Add extra milk only if needed, one tablespoon at a time.
- Scoop the thick mixture into a wide, shallow bowl. Smooth the top with the back of a spoon to create an even surface.
- Arrange toppings in sections: chocolate chips down the center, cookie crumbles on one side, banana slices on the other. Add coconut and granola. Press toppings gently into the surface.
- Serve immediately and enjoy with a spoon! The bowl will start to soften after 5-10 minutes at room temperature.
Notes
Substitutions:
- Use almond butter or peanut butter instead of cashew butter
- Swap Greek yogurt for coconut yogurt (dairy-free option)
- Skip blue spirulina for a tan-colored bowl with the same great taste
- Use any milk: dairy, almond, oat, or coconut
- The key to a thick bowl is using minimal liquid. Start with 1/4 cup milk and only add more if your blender struggles
- Make sure bananas are completely frozen for best texture
- Use a high-powered blender for smoothest results
