Tahini Smoothie Bowl Recipe

Tahini takes this smoothie bowl from ordinary to extraordinary. Created by Melissa of @the_queenship, this bowl gets its ultra-creamy texture and luxurious feel from tahini—made from ground sesame seeds. It’s a rich and satisfying treat that strikes the perfect balance between nourishing and just a little decadent.

Naturally sweetened with frozen bananas and a single Medjool date, it also gets a boost from maca powder and hemp hearts—making it a true superfood powerhouse. And the toppings? Pure magic. Blackberries, blueberries, and figs add vibrant natural sweetness, while fresh mint, cacao nibs, and our veggie-powered Kale Matcha Garden Granola® bring just the right crunch and flavor complexity.

Smoothie perfection in a bowl. Grab a spoon and dive in!
