How to make apricot oatmeal smoothie bowl
- Peel and chop the bananas, apricots and peaches. Place in a food processor or blender.
- Add oats, turmeric, and coconut cream and blend until smooth.
- Spread between two bowls. Garnish with peach slices, blackberries, granola and chopped hazelnuts. Enjoy!
Tips For Success
- These use fresh fruit and already have a thick consistency from the oats and coconut cream. If you'd like a cooler and thicker bowl, you can freeze your fruit prior to blending.
- This oatmeal smoothie bowl is nutrient dense as is but if you want even more protein, feel free to blend in some of your favorite protein powder.
- Prepare your smoothie bowls ahead of time by portioning them into individual freezer bags and freezing. You can make a variety of different flavors this way. Then in the morning, all you have to do is throw them into the blender and add in some plant based milk and you're good to go!
- The options for toppings are endless and this entire smoothie is easy to make with simple swaps. Try adding some chocolate chips or coconut flakes on top of your bowl! Maybe some fresh sliced strawberries? Yum!
Storage
- I believe smoothie bowls should be eaten right away! However, if you have some left, keep it refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Another option is to pour it into popsicle molds and place in the freezer. You can re-blend it later or enjoy as a popsicle!
