Thank you so much! I loved it! My bananas weren't frozen but I ended up with a thick and indulging smoothie anyway. :)

Love this smoothie! I sometimes add a teaspoon or so of cocoa powder to make it chocolatey, and some silken tofu for protein (can't taste it and it's perfectly creamy)!

Mmm lovely ideas to change it up, Claire! It means so much 🤗

I love this smoothie. It's so refreshing and so filling. Added some avocado for the extra flavor. Started having these couple of times during the week. Absolutely love it!

This is such a lovely and simple smoothie! I've been having it as a bowl for breakfast with toasted coconut, chia seeds, and some of PUL's coconut almond granola. It does a great job filling me up without also heating me up during this heat wave we're having. I also love knowing that I'm getting a good amount of fruit with no effort!

So glad its being enjoyed, Sonja, thank you! Stay cool out there ☀️

It is so delicious!
We eat it as bowl with granola and coconut flakes on top. Sometimes for variance I swap almond butter with chocolate tahini :).

Mmm sounds delicious, Sashka, thank you 😃

I LOVE THIS SMOOTHIE! This is my start to the day every weekday. I swap the frozen BB’s for some mixed frozen berries and add a serve of my salted caramel flavoured pea protein powder. Even though I only make one serve each day, I still use 500mL of oat milk. It’s just what works for me and my energy requirements. Thank you Sadia and thank you PIL team!

Absolutely loved this, i never would've come up with the vanilla in it! I used 2 smaller ripe bananas, so I added less liquid (1c coconut milk, 1/2c water), and a tbsp of flaxseeds. It still was a bit too liquidy for my taste, so I added an extra 1/2 of a frozen banana. Will def. make again (and use frozen bananas all together from the start)

This is so simple and so delicious! I will be making lots of your smoothies in the next few days because I got my wisdom teeth out today. These are really helpful because they are easy to eat and super delicious. 👍😋

So glad it was enjoyed, Celina, and wishing you a speedy recovery from the surgery!

Mmm my favorite smoothie! Thank you so much for this recipe! I make this at least twice a week now and my family will always ask for some. The flavor is just superb and the ingredients are so filling. The almond butter is just amazing here. Sometimes I'll add dates or chia seeds to the smoothie :)

PUL Team - Sept. 27, 2021, 11:26 p.m.

A massive compliment, Jackie, thank you! Love the addition of dates or chia seeds 🙂

I love the vibrant purple colour of this smoothie and it tastes as good as it looks! I have tried it with almond butter and without and both are delicious in different ways. I enjoy this smoothie in a bowl with all the toppings and my boyfriend prefers it out of a glass with a little extra plant milk. 💜🌿

So glad you're enjoying the smoothie, Charlotte, thank you!

This has become one of my go-to breakfast recipes, usually for days when I know lunch will happen a little later. I have to admit that I don't add vanilla as I'm not a huge fan (terrible, I know!), but it's worth every spoonful! I sometimes swap for peanut butter (as we have it more often at home) and it still is 100% the best breakfast!

PUL Team - July 11, 2021, 3:03 p.m.

Totally okay to exclude the vanilla! We're so thrilled you're enjoying the smoothie, Juliana 🤩

It’s so practical how few ingredient can create a complex meal! The vanilla and nut butter really enhance the banana, while (in my case) Swedish bilberries remain the star. This is the first smoothie recipe that I try from PUL to make as a weekend breakfast. I topped it with one crumbled PUL’s hazelnut granola bar. Amazing and filling! I’m not used to the cold sensation from the frozen fruit, but oh my what a nice texture they create!!! And the colour🤩

PUL Team - April 3, 2021, 1:48 a.m.

Mmm, love the pairing with the hazelnut granola bar! Thanks for taking the time to share the review, Louise 🥳
