Instructions
If you don’t have frozen bananas (or peaches) on hand, you’ll need to make some! Frozen bananas is absolutely essential for a thick, creamy smoothie bowl (trust me — you’ll thank me later!). To make them, simply peel and slice your bananas, chop your peaches, then add them to plastic bags and freeze for at least 4 hours.
Then, cook your sweet potato. For a super quick method, dice a 1/2 cup of sweet potato and add it to a 1 cup glass measuring cup. Fill the measuring cup with water, covering the potatoes. Microwave on high heat for 2 (until the water boiling). Strain the potatoes and allow to cool before adding to the Vitamix (or similar) with the rest of your ingredients. Can’t wait? That’s okay — you can add them right away, your smoothie will just have a thinner consistency.
Mince ginger and add with the other to the Vitamix (or similar).
Blend until smooth.
Pour the Superfood Peach Pie Smoothie Bowls into serving bowls and garnish with fresh toppings. Some of my favourites include fresh peach slices, pepitas, unsweetened shredded coconut, hemp hearts, chia seeds, goji berries and a dash of nutmeg
