A thick, creamy, and vibrant açaí bowl topped with crunchy granola, shredded coconut, and fresh dragon fruit. This easy and healthy recipe is perfect for a nourishing breakfast or snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 200g (7 oz) frozen unsweetened açaí packs
  • 1 cup (150g) frozen mixed berries (blueberries, strawberries, blackberries)
  • 1/2 medium frozen banana
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) unsweetened almond milk or other plant-based milk
  • Granola (crunchy variety with nuts and seeds)
  • Unsweetened shredded coconut flakes
  • Fresh or frozen dragon fruit, peeled and cubed
  • Honey or agave syrup (optional, for drizzle)

Instructions

  1. Prepare your ingredients: break frozen açaí packs into chunks, peel and cube dragon fruit, and have frozen berries, banana, and almond milk ready.
  2. In a high-speed blender, combine frozen açaí chunks, frozen mixed berries, half a frozen banana, and almond milk.
  3. Blend starting on low speed, gradually increasing to high, using pulse mode or tamper if needed, until thick and smooth (about 2-3 minutes).
  4. Adjust texture by adding almond milk 1 tablespoon at a time if too thick, or more frozen berries/banana if too thin.
  5. Spoon the thick açaí mixture into a serving bowl.
  6. Top with cubed dragon fruit, a generous handful of granola, and shredded coconut.
  7. Drizzle honey or agave syrup on top if desired.
  8. Optionally, sprinkle chia seeds or fresh mint leaves for extra flavor and presentation.
  9. Serve immediately.

Notes

Use only frozen fruits for the thickest texture. Add liquid gradually to avoid a runny bowl. Add granola just before serving to keep it crunchy. Frozen banana keeps the texture creamy without watering down the bowl. If you don’t have a high-speed blender, thaw frozen fruits slightly and blend in small batches.
