Can be made with any frozen berries such as blueberries, cherries, raspberries, blackberries, or a mix!
Rolled oats keep you fuller longer than traditional smoothie bowls that are made only with fruits. This is because oats have lots of fiber and are a low GI index food. This combination helps keep your blood sugar stable without spikes and sudden drops.
Want a higher protein content? Replace bananas with an equal amount of Greek yogurt or add a scoop of protein powder.
Large Berry Smoothie Bowl
There are three ways of making this smoothie bowl. I'd recommend the cooked overnight version because it yields a greater volume and is affected by the resistant starch heating/cooling cycle. You can substitute banana with Greek yogurt or add both. I make my oats with water.
Ingredients
Method
Overnight, recommended!
- Combine oats and 300-gram water per serving in a pot or a large microwave-safe dish. Microwave for 4-5 minutes. If using a pot on the stove, let it simmer for 10-15 minutes. Let stand until it cools then cover and place in the fridge.
- Cut and freeze the strawberry and banana.
- In the morning or 6 hours later, add everything to a blender and blend until desired consistency.
Overnight, raw.
- Combine oats and 200-gram water per serving in a bowl. Cover and place in the fridge overnight or 8 hours.
- Cut and freeze the strawberry and banana.
- In the morning or 6 hours later, combine everything in a blender and blend until desired consistency.
Instant, no overnight needed
- Combine everything in a blender and 160-gram water per serving in the blender. Blend until desired consistency.
Notes
Serve with your favorite toppings such as walnuts, banana, peanut butter, and fresh berries like strawberries or raspberries.
I recommend adding a dash of salt to your rolled oats. Salt enhances the flavor by bringing out the sweetness and nuttiness of rolled oats.
