Hibiscus Berry Smoothie Bowls
I am totally addicted to smoothie/Acai bowls! They are so delicious and satisfying on a hot day, for a yummy snack, or a healthy substitute for ice cream. My favorite thing about smoothie bowls is that you can change any ingredients to make it just the way you want it. Today's recipe is a delicious berry smoothie bowl that you're sure to love!
Hibiscus Berry Smoothie Bowls
Ingredients:
Cashew Cream Drizzle
1/4 cup cashew butter (or almond butter if you would prefer)
1 Tablespoon raw honey
pinch of sea salt
2 Tablespoons hot water, more as needed
Smoothie Bowls
1 1/2 teaspoons hibiscus powder (or 1 Tablespoon hibiscus tea from about 3 teabags)
2 Tablespoons old-fashioned rolled oats
1 Tablespoon chia seeds
1 Tablespoon hulled hemp seeds
1 cup frozen, chopped strawberries
1 cup frozen raspberries
1 small, sliced banana-frozen
1/2 cup almond milk (or whole milk)
2 Tablespoons raw honey
2 Tablespoons cashew butter (or almond butter)
Toppings
fresh berries
bee pollen
hempseeds
hibiscus powder
honey
Directions:
Make the drizzle by stirring together the nut butter, honey, and salt. Add in the hot water slowly until the mixture is a thick cream.
To make the smoothies, grind the hibiscus, oats, chia seeds, and hempseeds in a coffee grinder or food processor.
Combine the berries and banana in a blender and blend until smooth. Add the milk, honey, nut butter, and ground hibiscus mixture and blend on low until it resembles a smooth, soft serve texture. Don't add more milk, it needs to be thick.
Divide the smoothie mixture into two bowls and top with the cashew drizzle and top with your favorite toppings. Serve right away and enjoy!
Isn't is beautiful! This would be my ideal breakfast as it would start me off with necessary carbohydrates and proteins for the day. The chia seeds will also help keep you fuller, keeping you away from too much snacking between breakfast and lunch.
