Description
Turn sweet, aromatic passionfruit into an amazing smoothie bowl with this easy, gluten-free, vegan Passionfruit Smoothie bowl recipe, which also includes bananas, oranges, chia and flax seeds, and an assortment of toppings, like coconut, berries, and macadamia nuts.
Ingredients
Smoothie:
- 2 cups passionfruit pulp with seeds (the fruit removed from the shell)*
- 1 small banana, peeled
- 1 small orange, peeled
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon ground flax seeds
Toppings:
- 1 tablespoon shredded coconut, unsweetened
- ¼ cup berries (i.e., raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries)
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
- 2 tablespoons coarsely chopped macadamia nuts
Instructions
- Place passionfruit pulp with seeds in a small blender. Add banana, orange, chia seeds, and flax seeds. Blend just until smooth (about 2 minutes), allowing the black seeds from the passionfruit to remain visible in mixture.
- Divide the smoothie evenly into two serving bowls (about 2 ½ cups capacity each) and chill until mixture gets more firm (about 30-60 minutes).
- Remove bowls from the refrigerator and top with shredded coconut, berries, chia seeds, and macadamia nuts.
- Enjoy! Makes 2 (about 2 cups each) servings.
Notes
*Each passionfruit has about 2 tablespoons fruit, so this recipe will use about 16 ripe passion fruit. To gather passionfruit pulp and seeds, slice it in half, scoop out the interior flesh, juice, and seeds with a spoon, and place it in a container. You can freeze passionfruit pulp, seeds, and juice in an airtight container for up to 6 months.
Serve your smoothie bowl in clear glass parfait dishes such as these.
