Method

Acai Smoothie Base

1

Prepare frozen ingredients

Break the frozen açaí pack into a few pieces (if in solid block) and set aside. Peel and chop the frozen banana if not already in chunks so it blends more easily.

2

Blend

Add the frozen açaí, frozen mixed berries, frozen banana, almond milk, and Greek yogurt (if using) to a high-speed blender. If using protein powder or flaxseed meal, add now. Start blending on low, then increase to high, using short pulses. If mixture is too thick to move, add 1–2 tablespoons (15–30 ml) more almond milk at a time — the goal is a thick spoonable sorbet-like consistency, not a pourable smoothie.

3

Taste and sweeten if needed with honey or agave, blending just once or twice to incorporate.

Assemble & Toppings

4

Transfer the blended açaí mixture into a bowl, smoothing the top with a spoon or spatula.

5

Arrange toppings: sprinkle 1 cup granola over one side, fan the sliced fresh banana along another area, add fresh berries, scatter chopped nuts, sprinkle chia seeds and shredded coconut. Finish with a light drizzle (about 1 tsp) of honey or agave over the top.

6

Serve immediately with a spoon. If preparing ahead (not recommended for long), keep components separate and assemble just before serving to preserve texture.
