Rainbow Coconut Smoothie Bowls
Description
This recipe uses canned coconut milk, frozen bananas, and coconut meat blended with hemp seeds, shredded coconut, and honey to create a dense smoothie thick enough to be eaten with a spoon. Coconut milk is also frozen into ice cubes to chill the mixture without watering it down. Preparing the fruit in advance allows for precise layering atop the smoothie base to form a rainbow pattern using berries, stone fruits, kiwi, and other vibrant produce.
The smoothie bowl offers a cool, creamy texture with tropical flavors from the coconut and banana, sweetened lightly with honey. The hemp seeds and shredded coconut contribute gentle nuttiness and some texture variation. The fresh fruit topping brings brightness, natural sweetness, and visual appeal with a colorful spectrum.
Because it is served immediately after assembly, the bowl maintains firmness and freshness. This preparation suits those looking for a refreshing, nutrient-rich meal that combines tropical ingredients with fresh fruit in an engaging presentation.
Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut milk canned
- 2 banana frozen
- 1/2 cup coconut milk ice cubes

Instructions
- To make the coconut milk ice cubes, fill an ice cube mold with coconut milk! Freeze overnight. Slice and prep your fruit before you make the smoothie.
- Blend together the coconut milk, bananas, coconut milk ice cubes, coconut meat, hemp seeds, shredded coconut and honey. You want it to be thick so it can be scooped into a bowl, much like an acai bowl or banana “ice cream.” This works best with a high powered blender.
- Once the smoothie is in the bowl, layer on your fruit in the rainbow pattern. Cover with shredded coconut. Serve immediately!
