Fall season is for indulgent pumpkin recipes. It’s also important to keep a balance of healthy foods as well. This Pumpkin Apple Smoothie Bowl is packed full of nutrition and all the Fall flavors you love! 

If you can’t tell, I’ve been on a healthy recipe kick with the last couple of posts. Don’t worry, I’m sure I’ll be back soon with something super-indulgent. I’ve recently been loving eating whole, healthy and clean foods. I’m also not the kind of person that can have a bowl full of cookies in the kitchen and just leave them there.

I’m an all or nothing kind of person when it comes to my diet. Ooops. I find that no matter what, if I start out the day with a healthy and hearty breakfast, the rest of my day follows that pattern. This Pumpkin Apple Smoothie Bowl is going to be my new go-to for those days when I want something super flavorful to jump-start morning.

This is the first smoothie bowl I have ever created and I’m fairly certain the only one I’ve ever had. TBH, they’ve always kind of freaked me out. I mean they’re beautiful on Instagram (do you follow me? You should. Click HERE), but I always thought they were just for show. News Flash: They’re not.

They’re delicious and not weird at all. I love smoothies, but I thought it would be strange eating it with a spoon. In my opinion, you need a lot of different textures to offset the actual smoothie, but maybe that’s just me. I chose to top mine with apple, coconut flakes, hemp seeds, and chia seeds.

I meant to put on pumpkin seeds but I forgot them 🙁 oh well. I’m counting down the days until I can have this breakfast again and I highly recommend you try it!
