  • 1 frozen packet acai berry puree, 100 grams, broken into pieces (You can also use 1 tablespoon of acai powder)
  • 1 banana, sliced
  • 2 cups frozen berries
  • 1 cup apple juice
  • ½ cup plain yogurt
  • honey or other sweetener, to taste

Instructions
 

  • Add the acai berry packet, banana, berries, apple juice, and yogurt to a high powered blender; process until completely blended and smooth.
  • Taste for sweetness and adjust accordingly. If you add a sweetener, blend for a couple of seconds to combine.

Notes

  • Using a high-powered blender is beneficial. It ensures your Açaí Bowl is silky smooth and well-blended.
  • Stick to frozen fruits. They are crucial for achieving the iconic thick consistency.
  • Personalize with various fruits. Tailor your bowl to your taste by using what's available to you. Beyond frozen berries, options like mangoes, pineapples, kiwis, or peaches work wonderfully.
  • Feel free to mix in veggies and try different liquids. Incorporate greens like kale or spinach for an extra nutrient boost and experiment with various liquids such as milk, water, or nut milk to change up the flavor and texture.
  • To make it ahead, prepare the acai blend and pour it into mason jars. Keep in the freezer for up to 3 days. When ready, take out a jar and let sit at room temperature until partially thawed; stir and serve.
