# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It comes together in under ten minutes, even on mornings when you hit snooze twice.
  • The creamy base and crunchy toppings make every spoonful feel like a little celebration.
  • You can customize it endlessly with whatever you have on hand, so it never gets boring.
02 -
  • If your blender struggles, add the liquid first, then the frozen fruit, and use the tamper if you have one.
  • Don't skip the banana unless you replace it with frozen mango or avocado, or your bowl will turn out icy and thin.
  • Taste the base before pouring and add a little extra honey if your berries are too tart.
03 -
  • Freeze your banana slices ahead of time and your bowl will be even thicker and creamier.
  • Use a wide, shallow bowl instead of a deep one so you get toppings in every bite.
  • If you want extra protein, stir in a scoop of vanilla or unflavored protein powder before blending.
