pb&j smoothie bowls

all the delicious flavor you know and love from your favorite childhood sandwich rolled into a refreshing, perfect-for-summer smoothie bowl!

Okay guys, you had to know this was coming at some point, right!?

If you’ve followed along with me for a while then you know that PB&J is one of my favorite things.  Whether I’m coming up with creative ways to serve it or just eating it straight up, it’s one of my go-to flavor combinations.

So obviously I had to come up with a summer version of it!  Enter: PB&J smoothie bowls. All the flavors you love of PB&J, served up in a refreshing, summer appropriate way!

Since the PB&J combo on it’s own is pretty much as good as it gets, there was no need to go crazy with add-ins and other mix-ins.  

I did use a frozen banana because in my opinion it gives the smoothie bowl it’s signature texture, but honestly if you don’t like  you hardly even taste it. The power of the PB&J flavor is so great that you won’t even think about the banana being in there.

And you don’t have to stick to just peanut butter and strawberries. You can mix it up with whatever you like best. If you’re an almond butter fan, throw that in there! Swap out the strawberries for raspberries or blueberries, whatever you favorite combo is!

And just another bonus to this baby is that it’s kid-friendly! Owen completely demolished his bowl in 30 seconds flat and promptly asked for more. A mom win right there if you ask me!

Description

all the delicious flavor you know and love from your favorite childhood sandwich rolled into a refreshing, perfect-for-summer smoothie bowl!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 frozen banana (see note)
  • 2/3 cup whole frozen strawberries
  • 1/3 cup plain greek or skyr yogurt
  • 1/4 cup peanut butter (creamy or chunky, whichever you prefer!)
  • 1–2 cups milk (any kind you like; use more for a thinner texture, use less for a thicker texture)
  • Optional add-ins per bowl: 1 tbsp. chia seeds, 1 tbsp. hemp seeds, 1/4 cup peanut butter granola, 2 tablespoons unsalted peanuts, 1/4 cup oats (makes it so creamy!)

Instructions

  1. In a food processor, pulse frozen banana and strawberries together until a fine crumb forms.
  2. Add yogurt & peanut butter and begin to blend.  Stream in milk of choice until you’ve reached your desired consistency (I usually use about 1 cup, I prefer a thicker smoothie bowl so it can hold up to toppings)
  3. Top with additional peanut butter, strawberries or peanuts as desired.  It’s also great with peanut butter granola!

Notes

  1. To freeze a banana simply peel it and place it in an airtight container or bag then place in the freezer.  Allow at least 1 hour of freezing before use.
