Notes
Freezing bananas
This is about 2 medium bananas. You can make your own frozen banana by slicing it up and spreading the pieces in a single layer on a lined baking tray. Freeze for at least 1 hour, then transfer to a freezer bag for up to 3 months. Perfect for using up overripe bananas!
Protein powder
If you don't have chocolate flavor protein powder, use 4 tbsp/27g of vanilla protein powder and 2 tbsp/15g unsweetened cocoa powder. If you are using an unsweetened protein powder you may wish to add a sweetener of your choice to taste.
Serving size
This recipe can make either one large smoothie bowl or two smaller smoothie bowls to share.
