Prep Time: 10 mins • Cook Time: 0 mins • Total Time: 10 mins • Servings: 2 (Yield: 2 smoothie bowls)
Ingredients
- 7 oz frozen unsweetened acai pulp, partially defrosted overnight
- 2 medium ripe frozen bananas
- 1 cup frozen blueberries
- ¾ cup almond milk (or more as needed)
- 2 tsp honey (or agave for vegan / omit to reduce sugar)
Topping (suggested):
- 1 medium banana, sliced
- 2 tbsp fresh blueberries
- 1 tbsp pomegranate seeds
- 1 tbsp large coconut flakes
- Granola (optional, for crunch)
Directions
- Add acai pulp, frozen bananas, frozen blueberries, almond milk and honey to a powerful blender. Blend on high, pausing to scrape down sides, until smooth and thick — it should be spoonable (think frozen-yogurt texture). Add more almond milk 1 tbsp at a time only if needed.
- Spoon the thick smoothie into 2 bowls. Arrange banana slices, fresh blueberries, pomegranate seeds and coconut flakes on top. Add granola last so it stays crunchy. Serve immediately.
Cook’s Note
For easier blending, let the acai pulp thaw in the fridge overnight. Swap honey for agave to make this vegan. If you prefer an even thicker bowl, freeze the bananas a little longer or use less almond milk.
