This açaí smoothie bowl is light, refreshing, and the perfect meal when you’re looking for something quick and easy to eat. I used to buy them at local shops, but they’re quite pricey. Making them at home is way more cost effective.

What Is Açaí?

Açaí is a berry that grows on the açaí palm tree and is about an inch long, reddish-purple fruit, and looks similar to a grape. They are native to Brazilian rainforests.

The shelf like of an açaí berry is so short which is why you never find them fresh in stores, but frozen instead.

Are Açaí Berries Healthy?

With only about 70 calories a cup, açaí is packed with plenty of vitamins and other nutrients. It is rich in antioxidants, having three times the amount found in blueberries.

Açaí berries are rich in fatty acids, especially oleic, palmitic, and linoleic acids.

Ingredients

What you’ll need to make this recipe.

• Açaí Frozen Packets
• Apple Juice
• Bananas
• Frozen Berries
• Greek Yogurt
• Strawberries 
• Honey

How To Make This Recipe

Step 1:

Break up the açaí from one packet and place the açaí pieces in the blender.

Step 2:

Add the apple juice, frozen banana, frozen berries and yogurt in the blender and blend until smooth.

When you blend this with a liquid, such as juice or milk, it turns into the consistency of a smoothie. The goal is to get a thicker consistency so you can eat it with a spoon in a bowl. If the consistency is a little too thin you can add ice to thicken it up a bit.

The blended açaí can also be drank as a smoothie with a thick straw. They are equally as delicious and also a great option if you are taking it to go.

If you choose to eat your blended açaí as a bowl there are so many great toppings that you can add to make it even more awesome.

I like topping my bowl with sliced bananas and strawberries, then adding some granola and drizzling the top with honey.

What Toppings Are Good On An Açaí Bowl?

There are endless possibilities for topping your smoothie bowl. Popular toppings include coconut flakes, almonds, cashews, cacao nibs, blueberries, raspberries, chia seeds, flax seeds, plus much more.

How Do I Store My Açaí Bowl?

Place in a sealed glass jar and place in the fridge for up to 3 days. 

Can I Freeze My Leftover Açaí Bowl?

Yes, place the leftover açaí in a freezer safe container. Remove from freezer about 2 1/2 hours before enjoying again.
