Autumn Fruit Smoothie Bowl

So summer is slowly leaving us & the colder weather is coming in but I don't feel quite ready to ditch the smoothie bowls for oats just yet. So this week I came up with a slightly less tropical version of my previous smoothie bowls.

The great thing about smoothie bowls is you can get really creative with topping. I stuck to fruits & a bit of puffed rice for mine to keep the fat content down, but if you have more fats to play with then pecan nuts make a delicious addition to this recipe. Toasted oats work great sprinkled on top of this one too.

Ingredients:

Base:

30g vanilla protein powder

100g frozen mixed berries (or raspberries)

50g frozen mango or peach

150ml unsweetened almond milk

1/2 tsp almond extract

Topping:

1/2 peach

1 small fig

10g puffed rice cereal

A few raspberries

Instructions:

1. Place all "base" ingredients in blender & mix until a thick ice cream consistency is formed. If mix is not blending well add a tiny drop of water (but not too much otherwise the bowl will be too runny!).

2. Pour into your favourite serving bowl & decorate with toppings.

3. Eat! :-)
