Make your own Edible Unicorn
Berry Delicious Banana Smoothie Bowl Topped with Homemade Granola
Gluten Free, Vegan, Quick & Easy
Smoothie Bowls are so popular right now, and rightly so they look vibrant and taste incredible, not to mention they are super healthy. Unicorns are also hugely trending, they are so cute and magical, and it seemed like the perfect idea to pair the two to create the funnest looking smoothie bowl around!
Berries are full of antioxidants, the banana full of potassium, and almond milk calcium; not to mention the health benefits from eating a good source of healthy fat from the almond butter, plus the added benefit of mixing it all with high fiber oaty granola to prevent blood sugar spikes. This really is the perfect healthy recipe, with the added benefit that it looks amazing too!

What You Will Need:
For the smoothie

Any decorations to make your unicorn even more magical (optional)
Method:
Granola:
- Add all your granola ingredients into a bowl. Mix these together until covered in the nut butter and beginning to combine.
- Add to oven and bake for 15 minutes.
Berry Smoothie
- Add 1 1/2 frozen bananas to a food processor (I have linked one above in the shop this post section) along with 1.5 cups of frozen berries. At this point add half the almond milk and blend.
- Blend the mixture to remove all lumps-this also defrosts the frozen fruit and helps it to soften. Blend for approximately 3 minutes, depending on your blender.
- Keep adding the almond milk until you reach your desired consistency.
Putting the Bowl Together.
- Once blended, add to your bowl and place cone where you want the horn. Surround this with your granola.
- Place a line of small berries in a half circle, half way between the cone and the bottom of the bowl, to represent eyes.
- Cut your banana into slithers and use these for ears.
- Add any other toppings that will make your unicorn seem even more magical, this could be sprinkles, flowers, fruit or even sparkle dust on the horn.
