Ingredients
  

2 cups frozen cherries

1 ripe banana

1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or your choice of milk)

2 tablespoons chia seeds

1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup (optional, adjust to your sweetness preference)

¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

Toppings:

2 tablespoons sliced almonds

A handful of fresh berries (such as blueberries, raspberries, or additional cherries)

1 tablespoon coconut flakes

Extra chia seeds for garnish

Fresh mint leaves (for a finishing touch)

Instructions
 

Blend the Base: In a high-speed blender, combine the frozen cherries, ripe banana, almond milk, chia seeds, honey (if using), and vanilla extract. Blend on medium-high speed until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency. If the mixture is too thick for your liking, gradually add more almond milk until you reach your desired creaminess.

    Chill for Thickness (Optional): If you prefer a thicker smoothie bowl, transfer the blended mixture to a bowl and place it in the freezer for about 10 minutes. This will allow it to firm up a bit, providing a more satisfying texture.

      Assemble the Bowl: Once your smoothie base is ready, pour it into a serving bowl. Use a spoon or spatula to gently smooth out the surface, creating an appealing aesthetic for your toppings.

        Add Toppings: Get creative and artfully arrange your toppings on the smooth surface of the smoothie bowl. Start with a layer of sliced almonds, then add your choice of fresh berries, a sprinkle of coconut flakes, and a few extra chia seeds for added texture. Finish with a sprig of fresh mint to add a pop of color and freshness.

          Serve Immediately: Your Cherry Blossom Smoothie Bowl is ready to be enjoyed! Grab a spoon and dive into this delightful, refreshing, and nutritious treat while it’s still cool and creamy.
