RECIPE: chocolate-banana breakfast smoothie
Dessert for breakfast? Sign me up! A while back, I was in a rush before leaving for the office in the morning and didn’t have time for any of my usual breakfast options like chia pudding, bircher müsli or oatmeal. Instead, I decided to make use of an overly ripe banana and tossed it into the blender with a whole bunch of other things, that I guessed would keep me full until lunch – or at least for a while. The outcome, a totally vegan chocolate-banana breakfast smoothie, is my new favorite go-to breakfast and I even make it on the weekends, where I have plenty of time. It tastes like liquid dessert and with a whole bunch of healthy ingredients it is the perfect fuel to start the day.
What you’ll need:
– 1 ripe banana
– 2o0 ml almond milk
– 200 ml water
– 2 tsp chia seeds
– 2 tsp raw cocoa powder
– 1 tsp agave sirup (or 2 medjoul dates)
– 2 ice cubes (optional)
Throw everything into a blender and mix well. Top with coconut or fresh berries as desired. For those that also want the smoothie to be a bit more filling: Add 1-2 Tbsp. of oats. That will do the trick!
Looks delicious! Definitely I will be adding this to my list of to-try smoothies, such an addiction at the moment!

Mmmm chocolate and bananas are one of my favorite combos! I really need to try this. It seems so quick and easy, and I’ve been in such a mad rush in the mornings lately that I’ve barely had time to grab a water!

This looks amazing! I have never been to crazy about smoothies, but with Spring almost here I really want to try them out again, especially with frozen berries 🙂
Same here, best on the go drinks! I make it also super simple with just banana, almond milk, cinnamon and a spoon of peanut butter! A pure délice and the right amount of energy I need to keep me going 🙂
Um yum! Some of my favorite ingredients. Definitely bookmarking this recipe!

Hi Sammie,
