The Chocolate Cherry Almond Smoothie Bowl

The Chocolate Cherry Almond Smoothie Bowl Recipe

By VegetaFull

🔪Prep Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients

12 oz. (340 grams) of extra firm silken tofu

2 large very ripe bananas

3 large medjool dates, pitted

32 grams (¼ cup) of raw organic cacao powder

1/8 teaspoon of fine sea salt

1½ teaspoons of almond extract

2 tablespoons of almond butter

2 cups of frozen cherries (a combination of sweet and tart give a nice complex flavor)

Instructions

1First add the base and sweeteners to a high-powered blender container: the box of extra firm silken tofu, the very ripe bananas and medjool dates. Black spot bananas make for a creamy, silky smoothie bowl and also act as a natural sweetener.

2Next add the flavorings and healthy fats: the raw organic cacao powder, fine sea salt, almond extract and almond butter.

3Add the frozen cherries. Secure the lid on the container and blend, starting on low and working up to medium speed until the ingredients are creamy and fully incorporated, stopping to scrape the sides as necessary, or by using the tamper if you have a Vitamix. This will take about a minute or more depending on your blender.

I’ve never been good at introductions because when they’re needed, I seem to forget every single interesting thing about myself. But I guess we’ll start with the basics. My name is Maria, and I am a twenty year old student from England. I study history at the University of Oxford and live in Brighton, but I was born in Russia and moved to the UK around ten years ago. I’m a vegan foodie (as you can probably tell by this blog), a lover of long walks and somewhere awkwardly between extrovert and introvert. Veganism and healthy eating are a huge part of my life, given that both have helped me overcome an unhealthy relationship with food. Finding balance took a lot of time and patience. But, as with many things in life, hard work proved 110% worth it! Whenever I’m not in the kitchen or working in my room, you’ll often find me at the gym, or at the grocery store looking for inspo for my next recipe.
