Lemon Meringue Pie Smoothie Bowl / Vegan

Jump To Recipe

Are you in the pie for breakfast club? If you’re like me, that would be a definite yes. What if you could whip up that lemony meringue pie custard filling, in about ten minutes, and also know that it was completely healthy? My nutrient-dense, Lovely Lemon smoothie bowl delivers all that. I like my lemon smoothie bowls to taste really lemony, so there’s lots of freshly squeezed lemon juice and zest in this recipe. I also added turmeric for its beautiful yellow color and for its anti-inflammatory benefits and flax meal which has long been hailed as a superfood. The key ingredient, however, to the ultimate creamy smoothie bowl, is silken tofu. It comes in a handy 12oz. box which is shelf stable and, when combined with ripe bananas, makes a seriously delicious custard-style breakfast treat.


Ingredients

  • 2 large ripe bananas

  • 12 oz. (340 grams) of extra firm silken tofu

  • 4 large medjool dates, pitted

  • 2 oz. (¼ cup) of fresh squeezed lemon juice

  • 2 teaspoons of organic lemon zest

  • 1 tablespoon of flax meal

  • ½ teaspoon of turmeric

  • 1/8 teaspoon of fine sea salt

  • Fresh blueberries for topping

Makes 2 bowls


How to make Lemon Meringue Pie Smoothie Bowl

1. First, add the base and the sweeteners to the blender container: the silken tofu, the bananas, and the dates. Very ripe bananas are naturally very sweet and, along with dates, make for a pleasantly sweet smoothie bowl without adding any refined sugar.

2. Next, zest and juice a medium-sized lemon and add the zest and juice, along with the flax meal, turmeric, and salt to the blender container. Turmeric, which is a potent anti-inflammatory, creates a lovely yellow color.

3. Securely attach the lid to your container and blend on medium speed until creamy, scraping down the sides as necessary or by using the tamper (with a Vitamix) to push the food down and around toward the blade. This will take about a minute or more, depending on what type of blender you are using.

4. Scoop the creamy lemony mixture, which will be the consistency of loose custard into two bowls and top with fresh blueberries.

Enjoy as a nutrient-dense breakfast or a healthy dessert!
