Peanut Butter Banana Nice Cream Smoothie Bowl with Kale Matcha Granola
2 Servings | Gluten-Free, Vegan Option
Let’s be honest— There’s something deeply satisfying about the classic combo of peanut butter and bananas—especially when it comes in the form of a thick, creamy smoothie bowl that feels like dessert. This gluten-free, dairy-optional breakfast blends frozen banana into a soft-serve-style base (hello, nice cream) with cinnamon, vanilla, and a salty-sweet finish. Topped with our Kale Matcha Garden Granola®, it’s a plant-powered take on a peanut butter banana smoothie bowl you’ll want on repeat.
Ingredients
For the smoothie
2 frozen bananas
¼ cup milk of choice
1 tablespoon peanut butter

A small spoonful of peanut butter
Victory Dance Foods Kale Matcha Garden Granola
Instructions
Step 1 (Make Ahead): Peel and slice bananas into 1-inch pieces. Arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze overnight until solid. Transfer to a freezer-safe bag and keep frozen until ready to blend.
Step 2 (Blend the base): In a high-speed blender, combine frozen banana pieces, milk, peanut butter, vanilla, cinnamon, and sea salt.
Step 3 (Blend until creamy): Blend until thick, smooth, and soft-serve-like. Add a splash more milk if needed to get things moving.
Step 4 (Assemble your bowl): Pour into a bowl and smooth the top with a spoon. Add sliced banana, a dollop of peanut butter, and a generous handful of Kale Matcha Garden Granola®.
Step 5 (Serve immediately): Grab a spoon and dig in while it’s cold, creamy, and perfect.
Make It Your Own (Because You’re the Boss of Breakfast)
This Smoothie meets Nice Cream bowl is a template. A gentle suggestion. A starting point for something even more you. Here are a few ways to riff, remix, and make it your own:
Try a different butter: Cashew is subtly sweet. Tahini is cool and nutty. Almond feels a little fancy.
Need greens? Toss in a handful of spinach. You won’t taste it. Promise.
Feeling extra? Drizzle with a little chocolate sauce. No judgment. Only joy.
Parfait energy: Layer it in a jar with granola and yogurt and call it breakfast-on-the-go (or breakfast-in-bed).
Protein it up: Add a scoop of your favorite vanilla or unflavored protein powder, or stir collagen peptides into the milk before blending. (Bonus: it makes the texture even creamier.)
Switch the crunch: Try it with a different Garden Granola® flavor or Granuesli®.
