Acai Bowl
Ingredients
- 1 large ripe banana, peeled, cut into 1-inch chunks and frozen
- 2 (3.5 oz) pkgs unsweetened frozen acai puree, thawed about 1/3 of the way under warm water
- 1/2 cup frozen blueberries
- 1/2 cup sweet fruit juice*, then more as needed
Toppings
- Honey or vanilla flavored granola
- Honey, to taste (optional)
- Fresh fruit for topping*
Instructions
- Place bowls in freezer while preparing mixture.
- Hit acai (in sealed packages) with a meat mallet to break into pieces.
Blender instructions:
- To a high powered blender, add acai, banana pieces, blueberries, and juice.
- Blend on a moderately low speed until smooth (lower speed works better for this thickness). If needed you can add a little more juice, and stir occasionally if it’s too thick to blend.
Food processor instructions:
- Add bananas to food processor, cover with lid and hold processor down (it will want to jump!) then pulse in bursts to break into tiny bits.
- Add blueberries, pulse in bursts to break into bits. Add acai and juice and pulse to a smooth puree.
- Pour mixture into chilled bowls. Top with granola, fruit and drizzle with honey if desired.
Notes
- *I use apple juice, grape juice or fruit punch blend. Only use 100% juice.
- Most commonly I’ve found these topped with bananas, strawberries and blueberries. Coconut, kiwi, raspberries, and pineapple are other good options.
- Nutrition is for smoothie portion only, based on 2 servings. Does not include toppings as these will vary based on what you use.
