Acai Berry Smoothie Bowl (Printer-Friendly)

Colorful acai blend with fruits, seeds, and crunchy toppings for a nourishing start to your day.

# What You'll Need:

→ Smoothie Base

01 - 2 packets (7 oz) frozen unsweetened acai puree
02 - 1 medium ripe banana, sliced and frozen
03 - 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
04 - 1/2 cup frozen mixed berries
05 - 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup

→ Toppings

06 - 1/2 banana, sliced
07 - 1/4 cup fresh berries
08 - 2 tablespoons granola
09 - 1 tablespoon chia seeds
10 - 1 tablespoon toasted coconut flakes
11 - 1 tablespoon pumpkin seeds
12 - 1 tablespoon almond butter

# How To Make It:

01 - Add frozen acai puree, frozen banana, almond milk, frozen mixed berries, and honey to a high-powered blender.
02 - Blend on high speed until completely smooth and thick, stopping to scrape down sides as needed. The mixture should be thicker than a standard smoothie.
03 - Divide the smoothie mixture evenly between two serving bowls, spreading with the back of a spoon.
04 - Arrange sliced banana, fresh berries, granola, chia seeds, coconut flakes, pumpkin seeds, and almond butter over each bowl in an even layer.
05 - Enjoy the smoothie bowl right away with a spoon before the base begins to melt.

# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • It tastes like dessert for breakfast but fuels you with genuine energy for hours
  • The toppings make every spoon feel like a new discovery
  • Ready in ten minutes but looks like something from a fancy cafe
02 -
  • Letting the frozen fruit soften slightly before blending prevents that stuck-blender frustration
  • The base must be thicker than you think, or it will melt too quickly once topped
  • Acai puree packets are usually found near frozen fruit, not in the ice cream section
03 -
  • Pre-slice your toppings the night before for a breakfast that comes together in minutes
  • Run your blender jar under warm water for 30 seconds if the mixture is too thick to blend
