Pink Lady® Smoothie Bowl with Granola Topping
If there is anything that is likely to cheer you up on a dreary morning, then it is a colourful smoothie bowl! People often pass up apples for their smoothies in favour of softer fruit, but Pink Lady® apples make a fantastic addition to a beautiful pink smoothie bowl.
Serves 2
Ingredients
For the granola:
- 8 tbsp porridge oats
- 2 tbsp Brazil nuts
- 2 tbsp pumpkin seeds
- 2 tbsp dried cranberries
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- 2 tbsp agave syrup
- 1 tbsp flax seed
For the smoothies:
- 2 Pink Lady® apples
- 100g (3.5 oz) vegan yoghurt
- 2 handfuls strawberries
- 1 banana
- 1 tbsp agave syrup
Method
- To make the granola, first chop the Brazil nuts into small pieces.
- Toast the Brazil nuts, pumpkin seeds, flax seeds and oats in a dry frying pan for about 3-4 minutes or until you can start to smell the fragrance of the nuts
- Add the coconut oil, syrup and cranberries and toast, stirring frequently until the pumpkin seeds are starting to pop
- Turn out onto a plate to cool. Once cool, break up into clusters
- For the smoothie, core the apples but leave the peel on. Chop the banana and hull the strawberries. Place them all in a blender along with the yoghurt and agave and blend until smooth
- Pour into bowls, top with slices of apple and some granola. Enjoy!
