Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 frozen acai packet (or 2 tablespoons acai powder)
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) almond milk (or any non-dairy milk)
- 1/2 cup (75 g) frozen mixed berries
- 1 ripe banana, frozen
Toppings:
- 1/4 cup (30 g) granola
- 1 tablespoon (15 ml) chia seeds
Sweetener:
- Honey (optional) for sweetness
Instructions
- Unwrap the frozen acai packet and fragment it into smaller pieces inside the blender.
- Pour almond milk into the blender to help facilitate smooth blending.
- Tumble frozen mixed berries and ripe banana into the blender container.
- Activate the blender at high speed, pulsing until the mixture transforms into a velvety, uniform consistency.
- If the blend appears too thick, incorporate additional liquid gradually to achieve a silky, spoonable texture.
- Transfer the vibrant acai mixture into a serving bowl with a smooth, sweeping motion.
- Artfully scatter crunchy granola across the surface of the acai base.
- Sprinkle chia seeds evenly over the bowl for added nutritional boost.
- Arrange delicate banana slices in an overlapping pattern around the bowl’s perimeter.
- Distribute fresh berries strategically across the top of the acai mixture.
- Finish by drizzling golden honey in elegant, thin streams over the entire composition.
Notes
- Choose a high-powered blender to ensure a smooth, creamy texture without chunks of frozen fruit.
- Use slightly thawed acai packets for easier blending and less strain on your blender motor.
- Swap honey with agave nectar or maple syrup to make the recipe vegan-friendly and add different sweetness levels.
