Tips

You can, of course, make your lactose-free peanut butter smoothie bowl using fresh berries rather than frozen ones. Frozen berries give the bowls a thick, perfectly spoonable texture, but if you prefer to use fresh, the peanut butter smoothie bowl will simply be less thick and creamy but still delicious. If it is too thin for your liking after blending, you can add ice cubes a few at a time to the blender until you reach the thickness you like.

What berries go in a lactose-free smoothie bowl with peanut butter?
Many different types of berries go nicely with a lactose-free smoothie bowl with peanut butter, but strawberries and raspberries are two popular choices for several reasons. Strawberries are a great choice because they have a sweet and slightly tart flavour that pairs well with the nutty taste of peanut paste. Raspberries too are a stellar choice because they also taste slightly tart and complement and offset the richness of the peanut butter. Other nice berries include blueberries, blackberries, and cranberries, depending on your personal preferences and taste.
What is the best peanut butter for lactose-free smoothie bowls?
The best peanut butter for a lactose-free smoothie bowl is, of course, one that is made without any lactose-containing ingredients. Look for ones that are labelled as "lactose-free", "dairy-free", or "all-natural" or simply make it yourself by blending peanuts until it becomes smooth and creamy, approx. after 8-10 minutes.
How long does a lactose-free smoothie bowl with peanut butter last?
A smoothie bowl will typically last up to 24 hours when refrigerated. This is because the ingredients, particularly fruits, start to oxidise and lose their freshness after this time. After 24 hours, the texture may also change, becoming less appetising. Just remember to store it properly covered in the fridge for maximum freshness.
