Ingredients
- For the acai base:
- 2 frozen acai puree packets (unsweetened or sweetened)
- 1 frozen banana
- 1/2 cup frozen mixed berries
- 1/4 cup almond milk or juice (apple or orange)
- For toppings (as desired):
- Granola
- Fresh banana slices
- Strawberries, blueberries, or kiwi
- Chia seeds
- Shredded coconut
- Nut butter (peanut, almond, or cashew)
- Honey or agave (optional)
Instructions
- Run acai packets under warm water for a few seconds and break into chunks.
- In a blender, combine acai, frozen banana, frozen berries, and just enough liquid to blend. Blend until smooth and thick.
- Scrape down the sides and add more liquid only if necessary.
- Spoon the thick acai blend into a bowl and smooth the top.
- Add desired toppings such as granola, fresh fruit, nut butter, and seeds. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Use mango or pineapple in the base for a tropical twist.
- Add protein powder or Greek yogurt for a protein boost.
- Top with cacao nibs or hemp seeds for extra texture.
- Acai powder can be used instead of frozen packets (1–2 tbsp).
- Blend base in advance and freeze for up to 1 week. Thaw slightly before serving.
