Prepare Ingredients.
Peel the banana and gather all ingredients. Make sure your protein powder scoop is ready.
Tip: Using a ripe banana will make your smoothie bowl naturally sweeter. -
Blend the Smoothie.
Add the banana, whey protein powder, and almond milk into a blender. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy with no lumps.
Tip: If the mixture is too thick, add a little more almond milk to reach your desired consistency. -
Add Chia Seeds.
Pour the smoothie into a bowl. Sprinkle the tablespoon of chia seeds evenly on top.
Tip: Letting chia seeds sit for a few minutes will slightly thicken the texture and release their nutrients. -
Serve and Enjoy.

Tip: Use a spoon to eat your smoothie bowl, savoring the creamy texture and crunchy chia seeds.
Pro tips
- Freeze the banana beforehand for a colder, thicker smoothie bowl.
- Add a handful of spinach or kale for extra vitamins without changing the flavor much.
