Banana Recipe ⇉ Vegan Smoothie Bowl with Carrot and Banana

Looking for a healthy, yummy breakfast to start your day? Try this vegan smoothie bowl with carrots, banana, coconut, and goji berries. I used unsweetened vanilla almond milk but you can substitute with any non-dairy milk. If you like it sweeter, use some agave syrup (but I don't think it needs any extra sugar).

Ingredients

• 2 pitted Medjool dates
• 1 frozen banana, chopped
• 1 cup coarsely chopped carrot
• ½ cup unsweetened vanilla-flavored almond milk, or more to taste
• ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
• 2 tablespoons flaked coconut
• 1 tablespoon goji berries

Cooking Directions

1. Place dates in a small bowl and cover with cold water; let soak, about 5 minutes. Drain and chop.
2. Place chopped dates, banana, carrot, almond milk, cinnamon, and ginger in a blender; puree until smoothie is thick and smooth. Pour into a serving bowl.
3. Top smoothie bowl with flaked coconut and goji berries.
