Creamy Oat & Berry Smoothie Bowl

1.Place the rolled oats and almond milk in a blender. Let soak for 5 minutes to soften the oats for a creamier texture.

2.Add the frozen mixed berries, ripe banana, honey or maple syrup (if using), vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and chia seeds to the blender.

3.Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and thick. If too thick, add a splash of almond milk to reach desired consistency; the smoothie should be thick enough to eat with a spoon.

4.Divide the smoothie evenly between two bowls.

5.Top each bowl with the chopped mixed nuts, pumpkin seeds, fresh berries, and mint leaves if desired.

6.Serve immediately with a spoon and enjoy your nutritious, creamy oat and berry smoothie bowl.
