Mango Pineapple Smoothie Bowl
This Mango Pineapple Smoothie Bowl brings the tropics to you! Customize the toppings on this vegan smoothie bowl for your ideal healthy breakfast or snack. Ready in 5 minutes!
Need more vegan breakfast ideas? Let me tell you about my latest obsession: smoothie bowls. I’ve become a major smoothie bowl addict. I could eat one for breakfast pretty much every single day, and a lot of mornings recently…I have been doing just that. Acai and pitaya bowls are also everywhere in San Diego, so I’ve been picking up my fair share of the bowls at local juice bars too.
I love making my own smoothie bowl recipes at home most though. I can make them just as thick and creamy as I like them, with all the toppings that I want, using whichever fruits my heart desires. This classic acai bowl is a good place to start the smoothie bowl obsession. The strawberry banana smoothie bowl and peanut butter acai bowl are more frequent favorites of mine. If you hang around here, you know I can’t resist a little peanut butter ;)
Smoothie bowls are like the more filling version of smoothies. Because you can add toppings, smoothie bowls feel like a more hearty and filling breakfast than just having a smoothie. BONUS! By chewing your smoothie, you release enzymes that help boost your digestion for the day.
And of course, the mornings when I wake up already sweating, I need something refreshing! Something more tropical, bright, and fresh. Enter: the mango pineapple smoothie bowl, A.K.A. the tropical smoothie bowl of your dreams, a vacation to a tropical island in a bowl. It’s so irresistibly bright and fresh, it screams summer.
How to Make a Mango Pineapple Smoothie Bowl
- Blend the frozen banana, frozen pineapple, frozen mango, and coconut milk. This is the time to add any protein or nutrient powders if you’d like! Blend until it’s super smooth.
- Pour into your serving bowl or bowls, depending on if you make one bowl, or double the recipe for two.
- Top your bowl off with your favorite toppings. I’ve included my favorite recommendations below.
Tips & Tricks for the BEST Smoothie Bowl
- Start slow with your blender to help all the fruit break down! If you have a blender with a tamper, use the tamper to get things moving and you can slowly speed things up as it blends more smoothly. If you don’t have a tamper, scrape down the sides as needed.
- The amount of milk is adjustable! I like my smoothie bowls really thick and creamy, almost ice cream-like in texture! So, I go for a pretty small amount of milk, just enough to help it blend. If you want it thinner and more smoothie-like, use more milk!
- Add in your favorite superfoods/protein powders! Smoothie bowls are a GREAT place to pack in extra nutrients, so you have a super healthy vegan breakfast. I love adding extra seeds (such as for seed cycling), green powders, and vitamin powders to my smoothies.
Having trouble blending your smoothie?? Use your tamper to keep things moving if you have one, and scrape down the sides to help it blend! Added milk can help it blend easier, but don’t add too much or you’ll thin it out.
What are the best smoothie bowl toppings?
Now for the toppings…I go a little crazy here sometimes. The top three are what I went with, and some other smoothie bowl topping favorites are listed below.
- Kiwi Slices
- Fresh Mango
- Coconut Flakes
- Granola
- Chia, Hemp or Flax Seeds
- Macadamia Nuts
- Nut Butter
You can make this easy recipe in just 10 minutes. This easy smoothie bowl recipe only makes one bowl, but it easily doubles so you can make one for you and whoever you love (or a giant one for you!!!). I wouldn’t try to make more than two at a time. Your blender might not be able to handle it, especially if you like making your smoothie bowls ultra-thick like me.
Time for a smoothie bowl break! Enjoy :)

Notes
Nutritional information does not include toppings.
I’ve been addicted to smoothie bowls lately too, especially because it’s been SO hot out! This mango pineapple version sounds so fresh and delicious, Rachel! Definitely my kind of summer breakfast!
Aren’t they the best?! Thanks, Gayle!
OMG this looks so good, Rachel! I want a bowlful right now!
Thank you, Gayatri!
It has been soooo hot here lately – all I’ve been craving are smoothies!! I really need to get on the smoothie bowl train – this sounds fantastic!
The smoothie bowl train is the BEST train! Thanks, Ashley.
This smoothie bowl is simply gorgeous! Love the mango pineapple combination. I wish I had one right now!
Haha, me too! Thanks so much, Jen.
I LOVE the flavors you’ve got goin’ on in this bowl Rachel! I can see why you’re addicted to smoothie bowls! And it’s just so pretty!
You make the prettiest smoothie bowls, Rachel! I love how thick and creamy this one looks and the tropical flavors sound delicious!
Your smoothie bowl is gorgeous, Rachel, and I LOVE the tropical flavored smoothies the best! Mango and pineapple are so refreshing together, and all of the toppings you have take it over the edge. This looks like something I need in the heat we’re having right now!
This looks so yummy and thick! Thick smoothie bowls are always the way to go. These tropical flavors are great! I really dig the coconut milk and kiwi in here!
The thicker the better, in my book! Thanks Amanda :)
Smoothie bowls are a trend I am seriously happy about- all those toppings are just heavenly :)
Smoothie bowls are so perfect to beat this summer heat! I love anything to do with mango, so this is a must-try in my book!
I like your website, and all kinds of smother,
Any idea about how many calories in this? Looks soooo good!
Hi Madeline, it’s 366 calories without the toppings!
Hey Rachel! This smoothie bowl looks delicious. Do you think it would work to add a scoop of protein powder while blending with the fruit? Without some sort of protein in the morning, I feel like I get hungry again too fast. Thanks!
Hi Devan, you definitely could. I love adding a scoop of Vital Proteins collagen to mine.
I added granola to mine. Sooooo good!
Yum! So glad you’re loving it Lereka.
Hello. This may be a silly question – I think I already know the answer but just to clarify – the coconut milk in this MANGO PINEAPPLE SMOOTHIE BOWL recipe is the liquid kind you get in the refrigerated section of the grocery store yes? Not the canned, thicker kind? Thanks so much. Excited to try this!
Hi Mags, yes I used the kind from the carton, not the can!
This was incredible!! Loved the fruity vibes :)
So happy to hear that!
This is SO GOOD!!! I topped it with chia seeds, slivered almonds, mango, and pineapple.
So glad you’re loving it Sarah!!
I used pineapple/coconut nectar instead of coconut milk. Delicious.
Me love smoothie bowl, really enjoy this one!
Any tips on what to use instead of bananas? My family hates them.
They add creaminess and sweetness but you can replace with more mango if you prefer :)
