This banana smoothie bowl is great for breakfast any time of year. Bananas are readily available year round, and we love that! Like our tropical smoothie bowl and mango smoothie bowl, this smoothie bowl is a convenient and nutritious breakfast.
You can also get creative with toppings. We suggest banana slices, fresh blueberries, chopped honey roasted peanuts, chocolate shavings, and ground cinnamon because these items pair so well with bananas. However, you can add whatever toppings you like. Homemade granola like this cherry vanilla granola or blueberry granola would be a tasty addition. Crumble a bit of these no bake oatmeal peanut butter bars on top and you'll have a breakfast you'll not easily forget! We have even more ideas in our toppings for smoothie bowls post.
