# What You’ll Need:

→ Smoothie Base

01 - 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks

03 - 1/2 cup coconut milk (full-fat or light)
04 - 1/4 cup Greek yogurt (or coconut yogurt for vegan option)

# How-To Steps:

01 - Combine frozen pineapple, frozen banana, coconut milk, Greek yogurt, matcha powder, and honey or maple syrup (if using) in a high-speed blender. Blend until completely smooth and thick, scraping down sides as needed.
02 - Divide the smoothie base evenly between two serving bowls, using a spatula to transfer all contents from the blender.
03 - Arrange fresh pineapple, coconut flakes, macadamia nuts, granola, chia seeds, and mint leaves (if using) on top in decorative rows or clusters.
04 - Enjoy the smoothie bowl right away while cold to maintain the thick, creamy texture.

# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • The matcha gives you steady energy instead of the jitters from coffee
  • Frozen fruit makes it thick enough to eat with a spoon, which somehow feels more satisfying
  • Takes literally five minutes but looks like something from a fancy café
02 -
  • If your blender is struggling, add just a tablespoon more coconut milk but no more or you will lose that thick consistency
  • Matcha can clump, so whisk it into the yogurt first before adding to the blender
  • The frozen fruit MUST be truly frozen or you end up with a thin smoothie instead of a bowl
03 -
  • Use a spatula to scrape down the blender sides at least once for perfectly smooth texture
  • Warm your bowls slightly in hot water then dry them if you want the smoothie to stay frozen longer
