Mocha-Banana Resistant Starch Smoothie Bowl

I want to make this for breakfast everyday. This smoothie bowl is so perfect, and so beautiful looking too! It contains some of my favorite foods; chocolate, coffee, bananas, and more! Not only is this breakfast so delicious, it is super healthy for you as well! I used banana flour to not only thicken the smoothie, but add a boost of health benefits. Banana flour contains resistant starch, which is a type of fiber that helps increase your metabolism, which helps burn fat, and reduces glucose levels. 
A smoothie bowl is basically a smoothie poured into a bowl and eaten with a spoon. But, the smoothie is slightly thicker and topped with delicious toppings, such as the toppings I used, which were sliced bananas, dark chocolate chips, and a gluten/grain free granola. 

Onto the recipe!

Mocha-Banana Resistant Starch Smoothie Bowl (yields 2 bowls)
  • 1 1/2 cups full fat coconut milk 
  • 1 cup freshly brewed coffee
  • 2 ripe bananas (plus more for topping)
  • 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
  • 1 tablespoon WEDO banana flour 
  • 1/2 cup gluten/grain free granola
  • 2 tablespoons dark chocolate chips
Blend coconut milk, coffee, and bananas in a blender. Add in chocolate protein powder and WEDO banana flour. Once everything is thoughly combined, pour into two bowls. Top each bowl with sliced bananas, 1/4 cup granola, and 1 tablespoon of dark chocolate chips. Devour! Enjoy this delicious & healthy breakfast that will leave you feeling great and energized!
