Print Recipe

A refreshing and wholesome açaí bowl featuring a creamy açaí base blended with frozen banana and coconut water, topped with fresh mango, granola, toasted coconut flakes, chia seeds, and fresh berries. Perfect for a quick, vibrant breakfast or snack.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 100g (3.5 oz) unsweetened frozen açaí puree
  • 1 large ripe mango, peeled and diced
  • 1 medium frozen banana
  • ½ cup (120 ml) coconut water (can substitute with almond milk)
  • ½ cup (about 50g) granola, homemade or store-bought
  • 2 tablespoons toasted coconut flakes (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
  • A handful fresh berries (blueberries or strawberries) for garnish
  • 1 teaspoon honey or agave syrup (optional)

Instructions

  1. Peel and dice the mango into bite-sized cubes. Slice the banana and freeze it for a few hours beforehand.
  2. In a high-speed blender, combine frozen açaí puree, frozen banana slices, and coconut water. Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy, about 1–2 minutes. Add more coconut water if needed to achieve a thick, scoopable texture.
  3. Pour the blended açaí mixture into a wide, shallow bowl.
  4. Arrange diced mango on one side, sprinkle granola over another section, and scatter fresh berries and toasted coconut flakes on top.
  5. Sprinkle chia seeds over the bowl if desired.
  6. Drizzle honey or agave syrup over the bowl for extra sweetness if desired.
  7. Serve immediately to enjoy the contrast between the cold creamy base and crunchy toppings.

Notes

Freeze the banana beforehand for a thick, creamy texture. Use pulse blending to avoid overheating and watery texture. Assemble toppings thoughtfully for texture contrast. Store leftovers in airtight container and keep granola separate to maintain crunch. Can substitute mango with pineapple or papaya, and coconut water with almond milk or green tea for variations.
