açai bowl ☁️
homemade açai bowl ☀️🥣
if you've ever come back from holiday craving that one breakfast you had every single morning... this is it.
after eating more than one açai bowl in menorca, i had to recreate it at home. it's now become my go-to breakfast whenever the weather warms up - cold, refreshing, naturally sweet and surprisingly filling.
the secret? don't skip the granola. it completely transforms the bowl, adding the perfect crunch to every spoonful.
ingredients
for the açai base
- 1 frozen açai block
- 1 frozen banana
- 50ml apple juice
toppings
- fresh strawberries
- peanut butter or almond butter
- coconut flakes
- gurt lush granola
for a smooth, classic bowl, we love our honey & vanilla granola. the finer texture pairs perfectly with the creamy açai.
if you're after a little more crunch and texture, our nut, seed & sultana granola works beautifully too.
method
- add the frozen açai block, frozen banana and apple juice to a high-powered blender.
- blend until thick, smooth and creamy. if needed, add a splash more apple juice, but keep it thick enough to eat with a spoon.
- spoon into your favourite bowl.
- top with fresh strawberries, a drizzle of peanut or almond butter, coconut flakes and a generous handful of granola.

don't underestimate your granola topping. it's what takes an açai bowl from good to really good.
