A nourishing and protein-packed acai smoothie bowl topped with homemade crunchy granola, perfect for a quick and satisfying breakfast or snack.

Ingredients

  • Frozen acai puree packets (100g or about 3.5 oz)
  • Frozen mixed berries (1 cup / 150g)
  • Unsweetened almond milk (½ cup / 120ml)
  • Plain Greek yogurt (½ cup / 120g), full-fat or low-fat
  • Banana (½, ripe, sliced)
  • Honey or maple syrup (1 tsp / 5ml), optional
  • Almond butter (1 tbsp / 15g)
  • Chia seeds (1 tsp / 5g)
  • Rolled oats (½ cup / 50g)
  • Chopped nuts (¼ cup / 30g), such as almonds, walnuts, or pecans
  • Maple syrup or honey (2 tbsp / 30ml)
  • Coconut oil (1 tbsp / 15ml), melted
  • Ground cinnamon (½ tsp / 1g)
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). In a mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, chopped nuts, maple syrup or honey, melted coconut oil, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Stir until evenly coated.
  2. Spread the granola mixture in a thin, even layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway through. Let cool completely for a crunchy texture.
  3. In a high-speed blender, add frozen acai puree, frozen mixed berries, unsweetened almond milk, Greek yogurt, sliced banana, honey or maple syrup (optional), almond butter, and chia seeds.
  4. Blend on high until smooth and thick, scraping down the sides as needed. Adjust thickness by adding more almond milk or ice cubes as desired.
  5. Pour the smoothie into a bowl and top generously with the cooled crunchy granola.
  6. Optionally, add fresh berries, sliced banana, or a drizzle of nut butter for extra flavor.

Notes

Use frozen acai puree for best texture. Bake granola until golden and cool completely for crunch. Adjust sweetness sparingly to balance tartness. Store granola in airtight container for up to one week. Smoothie base best enjoyed fresh.
