Ingredients

  • 2 packets frozen acai puree 3.5 ounces per packet
  • 1 cup sliced frozen banana
  • 1 cup frozen mixed berries
  • 3/4 cup coconut milk
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/2 cup granola
  • 1 cup Fresh fruit sliced
  • assorted toppings as desired

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Break up the acai packets into pieces. Place the acai, banana, mixed berries, coconut milk and honey in a blender.
  2. Blend until smooth. You will need to use a tamper stick or occasionally turn the blender off and use a spoon to stir everything up.
  3. Spoon the acai mixture into two bowls. Top with granola, fresh fruit and other toppings as desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • I find that the texture of the acai bowls are best if served immediately. If you’re looking to make them in advance for meal prep purposes, you can blend up the fruit mixture and store it in small containers in the freezer. Let the acai mixture partially thaw, give it a stir and you’ll be ready to eat.
  • Acai berries are small fruit from Central and South America and are a superfood because of their high antioxidant levels. You can find packets of acai berry puree in the freezer section of grocery stores, typically with the frozen fruit.
