FAQ

Can I use fresh fruit instead of frozen? Yes, you can use fresh fruit but you might need to add a few ice cubes so the bowl stays thick and chilled enough.

What milk alternatives can I use? Sure, you can use soy milk, coconut milk or any other plant-based milk depending on your taste. I find almond milk works great but feel free to experiment.

Is this bowl vegan? It is if you swap out the honey for agave syrup. Otherwise, using honey means its not fully vegan.

How do I adjust the sweetness? You can add a little more honey or agave if you like it sweeter or cut it out if you prefer a lighter taste, so adjust it to your liking.

What should I do if I dont like chia seeds? The chia seeds are optional for extra thickness so if you're not a fan you can simply skip them without any issues.

How long do i blend the ingredients? Blend until smooth but stop before it gets too runny, this helps keep the bowl nice and thick for topping.

Dragon Fruit Smoothie Bowl Recipe Substitutions and Variations

For the frozen dragon fruit cubes, you can try using frozen acai puree or even a mix of frozen red berries to get a similar vibrant effect.
If you don’t have a frozen banana, you could chop up a fresh banana and freeze it beforehand, or add a bit of avocado for extra creaminess.
You can swap the frozen mango chunks with frozen peaches or apricots if you want a slightly different but still tropical vibe.
If frozen pineapple chunks are unavailable, try using frozen orange segments or a splash of lime juice with extra liquid fruit for a tangy twist.
Instead of unsweetened almond milk, unsweetened oat milk or cashew milk works great as a substitute.

Pro Tips

1. If your blender struggles with the frozen fruit, let it sit out for a couple of minutes to soften up slightly, it makes blending a lot easier
2. Try switching up your toppings sometimes, mixing different berries or even a few slices of banana can really change the flavor in a good way
3. For a thicker bowl that holds more toppings, experiment with extra chia seeds and let the bowl sit for a bit before eating so it thickens more
4. Make sure your frozen fruit is of good quality, freezer burn can dull the taste and mess up the texture so it might be worth checking before you blend
