Looking for a healthy and vibrant recipe for this Spring? Elina from the blog Bowls and Flows shared another perfect one!
Made with the Brazilian super food Açaí, this recipe is packed with antioxidants, fibers and healthy fats - a perfect quick and healthy way to nourish your body!
Smooth Açaí Bowl with crunchy granola
INGREDIENTS (1 PORTION)
- 1 frozen banana, cut in slices
- 8 açaí drops (around 70 g of frozen açaí pulp), I use Wholey Organics
- 50 g fresh blueberries
- 50 g frozen raspberries
- 3 pitted dates
- 150 ml oat drink
- optional: 1 tbsp natural protein powder or vegan collagen powder
- 2 tbsp chai ginger granola
- 1 tsp runny almond or cashew butter
- cocoa nibs, coconut flakes and fresh berries
METHOD
- Let the banana slices thaw for 10 minutes before you start. In a high-speed blender, mix together banana, açaí pulp, blueberries, raspberries, dates and oat drink until a smooth consistency. It’s optional to add some protein or collagen powder (it will give you a much more smooth consistency). You may need to stop and scrape down the sides of the blender occasionally to ensure everything is well blended.
- Pour the açaí mixture into a bowl and top with granola, fresh berries, cocoa nibs, coconut flakes and nut butter.
Note from Elina: "Let the bowl sit for a couple of minutes before eating. I know you must think: „But it will melt away!“. No, it won’t. It will be just perfect when you eat it 🙂
