Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups (225g) frozen mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
  • 1/2 cup (120g) small-curd full-fat cottage cheese
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) honey or maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon (2.5ml) vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon (12g) chia seeds (optional)
  • Fresh berries and sliced almonds for topping

Instructions

  1. Measure your ingredients: 1 1/2 cups frozen mixed berries, 1/2 cup small-curd cottage cheese, 1/4 cup almond milk, 1 tablespoon honey, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  2. In a high-speed blender, combine the frozen berries, cottage cheese, almond milk, honey, and vanilla extract. Blend on high for 45 seconds to 1 minute until creamy and smooth.
  3. Check consistency: if too thick, add almond milk 1 tablespoon at a time; if too thin, add a few more frozen berries and pulse.
  4. Optional: Stir in 1 tablespoon chia seeds and let sit for 5 minutes to allow seeds to swell.
  5. Prepare toppings: slice fresh berries and almonds, or add granola, coconut flakes, or nut butter if desired.
  6. Pour smoothie base into a bowl and arrange toppings artfully on top.
  7. Serve immediately for best flavor and texture. If storing, cover and refrigerate up to 2 hours and stir before eating.

Notes

Use small-curd cottage cheese for creaminess. If dairy-free, substitute with coconut yogurt and maple syrup instead of honey. Pulse blending helps achieve smooth texture. Adjust sweetness after blending. Pre-chill bowl for better texture. Store smoothie base separately from toppings if preparing ahead.
