Acaí Bowl
This Acaí Bowl blends unsweetened frozen acaí purée with ripe banana and vanilla Greek yogurt to create a creamy, slightly sweet smoothie base. A splash of almond milk adjusts the texture, while toppings like fresh berries, granola, roasted almonds, and chia seeds add variety and crunch. The natural sweetness mainly comes from the ripe banana and yogurt, with optional agave or honey to taste.
Ingredients
- 7 oz Acai purée unsweetened frozen pouches, very slightly thawed
- ¼ cup Greek yogurt vanilla
- 1 small banana very ripe, frozen, cut into fourths
- almond milk or milk of your choice, splash
- agave syrup or honey, optional, 1-2 tsp, for sweetness
- Berry kiwi, banana, granola, sliced honey roasted almonds, roasted coconut chips, chia seeds, etc, fresh, sliced, for topping
