Method
Açaí base
- 1
Prepare frozen fruit
Break the frozen açaí packets into a few chunks if solid. Combine the frozen açaí puree (300 g) and frozen banana (1 cup) in a high-speed blender or food processor.

Sweeten and achieve thick smoothie texture
Add 1 tablespoon honey or agave. Blend in short pulses until mixture is very thick and scoopable (like soft-serve). If too thick to move, add up to 1–2 tablespoons (15–30 ml) more milk; if too thin, add a few more frozen banana slices or a small handful of ice. Aim for a dense, spoonable texture.
Granola & crunch
- 4
Spoon 3/4 cup granola into a shallow serving bowl or divide between two smaller bowls. Sprinkle 2 tsp toasted coconut flakes and 2 tsp crushed nuts evenly over the granola to build texture layers.
Fresh fruit
- 5
Arrange the sliced strawberries (1/2 cup), blueberries (1/4 cup), kiwi (1/2 cup), and sliced banana (1/2 cup) in neat rows or clusters on top of the granola, leaving a central well or area for the açaí base.
Assemble bowl
- 6
Spoon the prepared thick açaí base into the center of the bowl over the granola and between fruit sections. Use the back of the spoon to smooth or create swirls so the toppings are visible.
Premium toppings & finish
- 7
Sprinkle 1 tsp cacao nibs, 1 tsp chia seeds, and 1/2 tsp bee pollen evenly over the bowl. Drizzle 1 tsp honey in a thin stream across the top. Finish with a light dusting of 1/4 tsp lime zest for brightness, if using.
- 8
Serve immediately with a spoon. If preparing ahead, keep the açaí base frozen and assemble just before serving to maintain texture and crunch.
