I’m so excited to share this super fun and clever Cookie Monster Smoothie Bowl today! Now, if you do a quick Google search, cookie monster bowls are definitely a *whole thing* and I did not come up with it myself. This is simply my own take on it. And in signature June Table fashion, it’s packed with secret veggies, plenty of nutrition, and doesn’t sacrifice flavor for a second.

Cookie Monster Smoothie Bowl Ingredients

Frozen Banana: We’re using an entire one in this recipe, as it’s essential to get that thick and creamy texture.

Frozen Cauliflower: If you’re not buying already frozen cauliflower, be sure to steam or blanch fresh cauliflower before freezing. This will ensure it blends smoothly without any lingering cauliflower flavor. You can follow my how to freeze zucchini tutorial for doing this successfully, if you like.

Oat Milk: I find that oat milk contributes to the cookie vibes, but you can use any milk you want.

Cashew or Almond Butter: I’m partial to my homemade cashew butter, but both work great!

Vanilla Protein Powder: We want this smoothie bowl to keep us full and satiated! I usually use Garden of Life or Tone It Up.

Blue Spirulina: Totally optional, as this does not change the flavor of the smoothie one bit! However, it adds a bit of fun, doesn’t it? This algae is nutrient dense and is an easy way to add a pop of color without dyes.

Vanilla and Almond Extracts: Both of these are optional, but I like to add them for depth of flavor.

Healthy Edible Cookie Dough: For topping your smoothie bowl! This ingredient brings everything together.

Cacao Nibs: An optional topper for your smoothie bowl, but not mandatory.

Smoothie Tips & Tricks

  • Use a rubber spatula to scrape down the sides of the blender as needed to be sure everything is well-blended (we do not like a chunky smoothie!).
  • Be sure to blend longer than you think to make sure that cauliflower is really incorporated and no chunks remain.
  • If you’re allergic to nuts, you can still enjoy this smoothie by omitting the almond extract and replacing the nut butter in the cookie dough and smoothie with sunflower seed butter or tahini. It won’t taste exactly the same, but it will still be delicious.
