  • 2Banana, peeled, 200 g for blending and 40 g sliced for topping
  • 80 mlMilk, cold
  • 80 gGranola (to serve)
  • 100 gFresh berry, rinsed (to serve)
  • 6Mint leaf, rinsed (to serve)

Equipment

Instructions

  1. Mise En Place

    Gather 2 bowls, blender, spoon, scale, knife, cutting board, and jug; weigh strawberries, banana, milk, granola, berries, and mint. · 5 min

    What to look for: All ingredients are measured, cold, and ready beside the blender.

  2. Blend Thick Base

    Blend frozen strawberries and 200 g banana with 60 ml milk, stopping to scrape, until the base is very thick, smooth, and spoonable. · 2 min

    What to look for: The mixture turns pale pink, smooth, and moves slowly around the blades.

  3. Adjust Texture

    Add only up to 20 ml more milk if the blades stall; blend briefly, keeping the mixture spoonable rather than drinkable. · 1 min

    What to look for: The smoothie holds soft ridges and does not pour like a drink.

  4. Fill Bowls

    Pour the thick smoothie into 2 bowls and smooth the surface with the back of a spoon, working quickly so the frozen base stays cold. · 1 min

    What to look for: Each bowl has an even, glossy pink surface ready for toppings.

  5. Decorate Serve

    Arrange granola, fresh berries, banana slices, and mint leaves on top, then serve immediately before the bowl warms and loosens. · 1 min

    What to look for: The toppings sit neatly on a cold, thick smoothie base.

Ingredient substitutions

Milk

  • Water: Use as little as possible because the texture will be less creamy.

Granola

  • Fresh berry: Removes the crunchy topping but keeps the bowl fresh and fruity.

Fresh berry

  • Banana: Use thin banana slices as a simple fruit topping.

Mint leaf

  • Fresh berry: Use a few extra berries for decoration if mint is unavailable.
