Optional Recipe Customizations & Smoothie Notes

If you are filling extra and want to swap an ingredient or add a couple of extra ones, here are some variations you could try that I have personally loved:

1. Make It Vegan: The yogurt can be replaced with a vegan alternative. I used coconut yogurt, and it worked very well with the other fruits.
2. High Protein: Add a scoop of unflavored protein powder for 20-25g of extra protein in this smoothie.
3. Green Goodness: Incorporate 1/2 teaspoon of matcha powder for a caffeine boost, or/and a handful of spinach or kale for extra nutrients.
4. Swap The Mango: If you don’t have mango in the freezer, but have pineapple instead, you can use pineapple!
5. Nutty-Goodness: Add a tablespoon of creamy cashew or almond butter for a richer and creamier smoothie with nutty undertones.
6. The Smoothie Bowl Base: Increase the passion fruit flavor by swapping the dairy-free milk for passionfruit juice instead. 

The Equipment:

If you make smoothie bowls regularly or plan to, I suggest that you get yourself a food processor.

I often make smoothie bowls using a food processor rather than a blender. I find it much easier.

Although, I do love using a Nutribullet 600 to make smoothie bowls too.

My Top Smoothie Bowl Tips:

• Use Frozen Fruit: It’s essential to use frozen fruit to create the desired thick and creamy texture for this passion fruit smoothie bowl. Utilizing fresh fruit won’t provide the same thickness or consistency.
• Limit Liquid Addition: To maintain the smoothie’s thickness, be cautious with the amount of liquid you add. Start with the suggested quantity of liquid and only add more incrementally if necessary to achieve the perfect texture.
• Enjoy Immediately: For the best experience, the smoothie should be consumed right after blending. It’s not suited for storage as it will begin to melt quickly, since frozen fruit is used.
• Opt for High-Quality Vanilla: A small amount of good quality vanilla extract can significantly enhance the flavor of your passion fruit smoothie bowl. It adds a depth of flavor that complements the tropical notes of the fruits, making the overall taste more complex and enjoyable.
• Balance Sweetness: Depending on the ripeness of your fruits and personal preference, you may find the smoothie’s natural sweetness perfect or a bit lacking. If it’s the latter, consider adding a touch of honey, agave, or maple syrup. Adjust the sweetness gradually to ensure it suits your taste perfectly without overpowering the natural flavors of the fruits.
