Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup frozen raspberries
  • 2 frozen bananas peeled before freezing
  • 1 fresh orange peeled and segmented
  • 1/2 tsp orange zest
  • 1/2 cup plant-based milk

Equipment

  • high-speed blender
  • zester or fine grater

Method
 

  1. Freeze ripe, peeled bananas and raspberries ahead of time.
  2. Zest the orange, then peel and segment it, removing as much white pith as reasonably possible.
  3. Add frozen raspberries, frozen banana, orange segments, orange zest, and plant-based milk to a blender.
  4. Blend until thick and smooth, adding a small splash more milk only if needed to get the blades moving.
  5. Transfer to a bowl immediately using a spatula.
  6. Top with fresh fruit, granola, or coconut flakes, and serve right away.

Notes

  • Use fresh orange, not frozen, for the best texture, frozen citrus turns icy and fibrous once blended.
  • Start with the smallest amount of liquid possible, you can always add more, but it's hard to thicken a bowl back up once it's too thin.
  • This recipe doesn't hold up well made ahead, blend and eat immediately for the best texture.
  • Serves 1 large bowl or splits into 2 smaller portions.
