Shake, power lunch, or protein snacks: Every week, FITfuttern presents a recipe to try at home. Simple, delicious, healthy! Plus, we take a peek into the pots and shakers of fitness influencers. This time: a raspberry smoothie bowl.
A fruity-fresh breakfast that starts our day with vitamins and a good portion of protein–it not only sounds delicious but is also quick to make. And especially now, with cold season in full swing, nutrients are particularly important. Raspberries–the stars of today’s FITfuttern recipe–are rich in vitamins C, B, and provitamin A, which strengthen the immune system. On top, a dollop of honey, the sweet inflammation fighter from nature. You can easily have another serving for dessert in the evening …

??? Raspberry Smoothie Bowl ???
Ingredients for one bowl:
- 1 banana (halved)
- 2 handfuls of raspberries (fresh or frozen)
- 3 tablespoons low-fat quark
- 80 ml water
- 2 tablespoons granola
- 2 tablespoons flaxseeds
- 1 teaspoon shredded coconut
- 1 tablespoon honey
Place half of the banana and raspberries in a mixing bowl and add low-fat quark and water. Blend gently on low speed with an immersion blender to keep the smoothie mixture from becoming too liquid.

Transfer the mixture to a serving bowl and garnish. First, slice the remaining banana into finger-width pieces and arrange them in a fan shape. Then distribute the granola, raspberries, and flaxseeds over the smoothie mixture, either mixed together or lined up side by side–whichever you find more appealing. Presentation matters! Finally, drizzle the honey over the mixture. Now, enjoy!

Knowing this makes it taste even better.
