A refreshing and nourishing smoothie bowl featuring probiotic kefir and prebiotic granola, perfect for supporting digestion and enjoying vibrant summer flavors.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (240 ml) plain, unsweetened kefir
  • 1 cup (150 g) frozen mixed berries
  • 1 medium ripe banana
  • 1 handful spinach or kale (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1/4 cup (30 g) prebiotic granola
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • Fresh fruit slices for topping (e.g., kiwi, strawberries, mango)
  • 1 tablespoon coconut flakes or nuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Gather all your ingredients.
  2. In a high-speed blender, combine kefir, frozen mixed berries, banana, and spinach or kale if using. Blend on high for 1-2 minutes until smooth and creamy.
  3. If the smoothie is too thick, add 1-2 tablespoons of water or unsweetened almond milk and blend again. If too thin, add more frozen fruit or banana.
  4. Stir in chia seeds gently with a spoon.
  5. Pour the smoothie base into a serving bowl.
  6. Sprinkle prebiotic granola evenly over the top and add fresh fruit slices and coconut flakes or nuts if desired.
  7. Drizzle honey or maple syrup over the top if additional sweetness is desired.
  8. Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.

Notes

Use ripe bananas for natural sweetness and creaminess. Frozen fruit thickens the smoothie without watering down flavor. Blend long enough for a smooth texture. Add greens sparingly to avoid bitterness. Choose prebiotic granola with chicory root or inulin for gut benefits. Prepare smoothie base ahead and add chia seeds and granola just before serving to keep crunch.
