Method

Prepare ingredients

  1. 1

    Thaw & slice

    Remove frozen acai purée packet(s) from the freezer for 2–3 minutes to slightly loosen the edges. Slice the fresh banana for topping and measure out toppings so everything is ready to assemble.

Make acai base

  1. 2

    In a high-speed blender, add the frozen acai purée, frozen mixed berries, half of the banana (use the half you froze earlier if available), and 60–120 ml almond milk. If using protein powder or flaxseed meal, add it now. Start blending on low, then increase speed, pausing to scrape down sides and add small additional amounts of almond milk (up to 120 ml total) only if needed to get the blades moving. The goal is a thick, spoonable texture — not runny. Taste and add honey or agave if you prefer a sweeter bowl; blend briefly to combine.

Assemble bowl

  1. 3

    Spoon the acai mixture into a bowl, smoothing the top with the back of the spoon.

  2. 4

    Arrange the granola down one side or in clusters, then add banana slices and fresh berries. Sprinkle chia seeds and shredded coconut over the top and dot with almond or peanut butter if desired.

Serve

  1. 5

    Serve immediately with a spoon. If the base is too firm, let it sit for 1–2 minutes or stir gently to soften. Leftover base can be frozen in an airtight container for up to 1 month.
