# How-To Steps:
01 - Melt coconut oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add chopped almonds, rolled oats, maple syrup, and a pinch of sea salt. Stir frequently and toast for 3 to 5 minutes until golden and fragrant. Remove from heat and set aside to cool and crisp.
02 - Combine frozen blueberries, frozen strawberries, banana, coconut milk, coconut yogurt, shredded coconut, and maple syrup in a high-speed blender. Blend until completely smooth and thick, adding a splash more coconut milk if needed to reach a scoopable consistency.
03 - Divide the smoothie mixture evenly between two bowls. Arrange the almond crumble over the top along with fresh blueberries, sliced strawberries, banana, shredded coconut, chia seeds, and mint leaves as desired. Serve immediately.
# Expert Advice:
01 -
- The almond crumble toasts while the blender does its thing, so you feel like a multitasking genius with almost zero effort.
- It tastes like dessert but fills you up like a proper breakfast, which is really the dream.
02 -
- If you add too much liquid to the blender you end up with a smoothie in a bowl instead of something you can eat with a spoon, so start with less coconut milk than you think you need.
- The crumble softens fast once it hits the cold smoothie, so if you want maximum crunch serve it in a small dish on the side for dipping.
03 -
- Freeze the coconut milk in ice cube trays and blend those in instead of liquid for the thickest possible bowl.
- A tiny squeeze of lemon juice brightens all the berry flavors and makes the whole thing taste fresher without adding any sourness.
