Ingredients

Base Ingredients

  • 1 medium frozen banana (chopped)
  • 1 cup frozen blueberries (or mixed berries)
  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt (0% or 2%)
  • 1 scoop vanilla or plain protein powder (whey or plant-based)
  • 1 ½ Tbsp acai powder

Toppings (optional)

  • Granola

  • Cacao nibs
  • Honey

Instructions

  1. Add to blender: Gather all the base ingredients including the frozen banana, frozen berries, Greek yogurt, protein powder, acai powder, and oat or almond milk.
  2. Blend until smooth: Place all ingredients into a high-speed blender. Use the tamper if your blender has one to help blend evenly. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy. For a thinner consistency, add more milk; for a thicker bowl, add additional frozen banana or 1-3 ice cubes.
  3. Pour and top: Pour the blended acai mixture into a bowl. Add your favorite toppings such as granola, coconut flakes, bee pollen, chia seeds, sliced banana, strawberries, blueberries, cacao nibs, and a drizzle of honey for extra flavor and texture.
  4. Enjoy: Serve immediately to experience a refreshing and protein-packed acai bowl that is perfect for breakfast or a healthy snack.

Notes

  • Use frozen fruits to achieve a thick and creamy texture.
  • Adjust thickness by changing the amount of added milk or ice cubes.
  • Choose dairy or plant-based protein powder according to dietary preferences.
  • Toppings are optional but greatly enhance flavor and texture.
  • To keep it dairy-free, substitute Greek yogurt with a non-dairy yogurt alternative.
