Chocolate flavor in the morning really gets me going. This chocolate smoothie bowl is my newest breakfast discovery that I just can't do without anymore. After lots of kitchen experiments, I've finally nailed the perfect mix without adding any sugar. You can whip up this breakfast in just 5 minutes - it tastes heavenly and keeps you full for hours.
A Delightful Treat for Body and Mind
This bowl has become my daily companion. The natural sweetness from the banana works beautifully with the plain yogurt. My kids' eyes light up whenever they spot these bowls in the morning. The mix of oats and peanut butter gives me enough energy to power through the entire morning.
What Goes Into My Chocolate Bowl
- Banana: I prefer using a nicely ripened one as it makes the bowl extra creamy.
- Plain yogurt: 200g of the creamy 3.5% kind creates the perfect texture.
- Oats: 50g of the fine variety blends better.
- Cocoa: One spoon of unsweetened gives that rich chocolate taste.
- Peanut butter: A spoonful makes the bowl even creamier.
- Chocolate granola: A handful for that crunchy effect.
- Almonds: Sliced ones add that extra crunch.
- Cacao nibs: A spoonful for more chocolate flavor.

Creating My Favorite Bowl
- The Base Mix
- Everything goes into my blender: the ripe banana, creamy yogurt, cocoa, my favorite peanut butter and the oats. Then I blend until everything's nice and smooth.
- The Topping
- I spread the creamy mixture into two small bowls. On top goes my homemade chocolate granola, almonds and cacao nibs.
- Fresh or Prepared
- Sometimes I make it ready at night, then my breakfast is waiting for me in the fridge next morning.
What Makes It Special
As a mom, morning time is precious. This bowl saves me repeatedly, keeps me full for hours and my whole family loves it. My kids call it chocolate pudding for breakfast while I know they're eating something healthy.
My Prep Trick
I often set everything up in the evening. The finished bowl goes into my favorite container with a lid, then straight to the fridge. I store the granola separately so it stays crunchy. This way I can enjoy my dream breakfast in seconds the next morning.
How Versatile My Bowl Can Be
Sometimes I swap the yogurt for coconut yogurt when I want something different. Raspberries go great with it in summer. And on days I want it sweeter, I sprinkle chopped dark chocolate on top. Each variation tastes different and makes me want to try more.

My Best Bowl Secrets
The bananas should be really ripe for a super creamy bowl. I always buy my oats fresh from the organic store. The cocoa must be unsweetened or it'll be too sweet. I keep my granola in a jar so it stays nice and crunchy.
Good for Body and Soul
This bowl gives me an energy boost each morning. The banana and oats provide strength for my day. The yogurt and peanut butter make me feel full. Cocoa lifts my mood - I notice this every single morning.
How I Like To Serve It
In summer I love decorating the bowl with fresh berries. A splash of almond milk makes it even creamier. Sometimes I sprinkle walnuts or coconut flakes on top too. We eat with our eyes first, I always say, so my bowl should look pretty not just taste good.
Great For On The Go
On busy days, I take my bowl to the office. A handy container with a lid and granola packed separately keeps everything fresh. My coworkers always ask for the recipe when they see my breakfast.
