The Best Smoothie Bowl Toppings
I think it’s officially smoothie bowl season. Even if you haven’t made one at home, you’ve probably seen some gorgeous creations floating around Instagram. I’m excited to share my five favorite smoothie bowl toppings because I’m addicted to these delicious, healthy bowls!
The Best Smoothie Bowl Toppings
Chia Seeds
Tropical Protein Smoothie Bowl
Chia seeds are packed with healthy fats and fiber! One tablespoon sprinkled on top of your smoothie bowl will give you a boost of 5g of fiber. They’re even a good source of potassium and calcium. If you’re keeping chia seeds on hand, make sure you store them in the fridge so they’ll keep longer!
Sliced Almonds
Blueberry Cheesecake Smoothie Bowl
I love adding some crunch to my smoothie bowls so almond slices are perfect for this. They’re an extra dose of protein, fiber, and healthy fats! Plus, they’re easy to keep around since they last for a long time. I keep a bag of sliced almonds sealed in the pantry, then I just sprinkle a handful onto my smoothie bowls! If you get them from the bulk bin, you can usually save a few bucks.
Cacao Nibs
Chocolate Covered Strawberry Smoothie Bowl
If you’re craving something chocolate but you don’t want to add extra sugar to your smoothie bowl, these raw cacao nibs are perfect. They’re super crunchy and they’re basically super dark chocolate. I love them in bowls with strawberries for a sort of chocolate covered strawberry kind of taste!
Hemp Hearts
I’ve started sprinkling some hemp hearts (hemp hearts are shelled hemp seeds) onto my smoothies because they add a nice texture with a little extra protein. One little tablespoon has over 3g of protein! It doesn’t have a lot of flavor so if you’re hesitant to mix too many flavors in there, hemp hearts are pretty neutral.
Peanut Butter
Peanut Butter Protein Smoothie Bowl
Peanut butter is probably my original favorite smoothie bowl topping. I used to just swirl a spoonful of peanut butter into my banana smoothies and call it a day. My combinations might be a little more creative these days, but I still enjoy that peanut butter and banana combination!

Smoothie bowls are my JAM right now! Love the crunch cacao nibs give them, but I’ll never deny a good peanut butter drizzle! ๐
I adore cacao nibs! I won’t lie–especially if they are chocolate covered ๐
I’ve definitely been in more of a smoothie mood lately too! Peanut butter or granola are my favorite toppings!
Smoothie bowls are all about the toppings! Love the drizzle of pb! ๐
I love any nut butter but I’ve also started to drizzle coconut butter onto my smoothie bowls and then pop it in the freezer for a few minutes. The coconut butter hardens and it’s like a candy coating for my smoothie! So good!
I have yet to try hemp hearts. These look delicious!
Yum! Can’t do without peanut butter on my smoothie bowls <3
Ok, so I have yet to actually make a smoothie bowl, but all of yours always look so good. The cacao nibs sound perfect for me!
The peanut butter one looks amazing! You really can’t go wrong with that right?
Hemp hearts are so cute! And one of my favorite smoothie bowl toppings is definitely nut butter; I also love granola or dried fruit. ๐
