Vegan Acai Bowl
Prep 5 minutes
Cooking 3 minutes
Total 8 minutes
Makes 1 serving

Equipment

  • 1 food processor/high-speed blender

Ingredients
 

  • 110g / 1 cup mango chunks frozen
  • 140 g / 1 cup mixed berries frozen
  • 1 banana doesn't need to be frozen
  • 150ml / ⅔ cup water for the right texture
  • 1 tbsp acai powder preferably organic
  • 1 tbsp nut butter or 2 tsp oil (see notes)
  • toppings of choice

Instructions
 

  • Put all ingredients into your blender and blend at a low to medium speed first before increasing to medium/medium-high. You will need to scrape down the sides every now and then.
    A tamper to push down the fruit might help as well. If your blender has trouble blending the fruit properly, add a little bit more water.
    Don’t over-blend it! The longer you blend the fruit, the more it warms up and loses its ice-cream-like texture.
  • Scoop the acai mixture into a bowl and top with your favourite toppings. Serve immediately as it’ll start to melt.

Notes

  • nut butter: If you’re allergic to nuts or don’t want to add nut butter, replace it with any seed butter you like. Or you can substitute with 2 teaspoons of coconut oil, flax seed oil, avocado oil, sweet almond oil (if not allergic), or sunflower seed oil.
