Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). In a mixing bowl, combine 1/2 cup (45g) rolled oats, 2 tbsp wattleseed, 1/3 cup (50g) roughly chopped macadamia nuts, 2 tbsp desiccated coconut, and 1 tbsp chia seeds. Drizzle 2 tbsp maple syrup over the mixture and toss to coat evenly.
  2. Step 2: Spread the granola mixture on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-18 minutes, stirring halfway through, until golden and fragrant. Remove and cool completely.
  3. Step 3: In a blender, combine 1 cup (150g) frozen blueberries, 1 cup (245g) plain Greek yogurt, 1 medium peeled banana, 1 tbsp honey, and 1/4 cup (60ml) unsweetened almond milk. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  4. Step 4: Pour the smoothie into a bowl and top with the cooled wattleseed granola, extra fresh blueberries if desired, and a sprinkle of toasted macadamia nuts. Serve immediately for a nourishing breakfast or snack.

Total time is about 28 minutes (10 min prep + 18 min cook). Most home bartenders find this fits a single afternoon; scale up the batch for parties or pitchers.

How do I store leftover Blueberry and Macadamia Smoothie Bowl with Wattleseed Granola?
