Print Recipe

A quick and easy tropical smoothie bowl that tastes like a beach vacation without the alcohol. Creamy, tangy, and topped with vibrant fresh fruit and crunchy granola.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks (150g)
  • 1 medium frozen banana, sliced
  • 3/4 cup canned full-fat coconut milk (180ml)
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt (120g) (or coconut yogurt for vegan option)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons toasted coconut flakes
  • 1 small fresh kiwi, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds
  • 1/4 cup granola
  • 1/4 cup fresh pineapple cubes

Instructions

  1. Slice the banana and kiwi (if using fresh), and cube any fresh pineapple for topping.
  2. Toast the coconut flakes gently in a dry pan over medium heat for 3-4 minutes until golden and fragrant. Set aside.
  3. In a high-speed blender, combine frozen pineapple chunks, sliced frozen banana, canned coconut milk, Greek yogurt, honey or maple syrup (if using), and fresh lime juice.
  4. Blend on high for about 1-2 minutes until smooth and creamy.
  5. Check the texture: if too thick, add coconut milk 1 tablespoon at a time; if too thin, add more frozen pineapple chunks or banana slices and pulse until desired consistency.
  6. Pour the smoothie base into a bowl.
  7. Arrange toppings artfully: granola, toasted coconut flakes, fresh kiwi slices, pineapple cubes, and chia seeds.
  8. Enjoy immediately for best texture and flavor.

Notes

Use a high-speed blender for the creamiest texture. Toast coconut flakes carefully to avoid burning. Frozen banana is key for thickness; freeze fresh banana slices if needed. Lime juice brightens the flavor. Store leftovers in fridge up to 24 hours; texture will thicken.
