A quick and easy smoothie bowl featuring a creamy blend of frozen berries, banana, and coconut milk, topped with crunchy acai granola and fresh mango slices. Perfect for a healthy breakfast or snack that feels fresh and nourishing.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup frozen mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
  • 1 medium frozen banana, sliced
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1/2 cup acai granola
  • 1/2 cup fresh mango slices
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds (optional)
  • Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare your ingredients: peel and slice the banana before freezing it ahead of time. Peel and slice the fresh mango into thin, even pieces. Measure out your frozen mixed berries and coconut milk.
  2. In a high-speed blender, combine the frozen mixed berries, frozen banana, and coconut milk. Add honey or maple syrup if desired. Blend on high until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. The texture should be thick but scoopable, like soft serve ice cream.
  3. Adjust the consistency if needed by adding a splash more coconut milk if too thick, or a few more frozen berries or banana chunks if too thin. Blend briefly again.
  4. Spoon the smoothie base into a serving bowl, spreading it evenly to create a flat surface for toppings.
  5. Sprinkle the acai granola evenly over the smoothie base. Arrange mango slices on top, sprinkle chia seeds if using, and garnish with fresh mint leaves if desired.
  6. Enjoy immediately to keep the granola crunchy and the smoothie chilled. If storing, keep the smoothie base in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours and add granola and mango fresh before serving.

Notes

Use frozen fruit to achieve a thick, creamy texture without watering down the smoothie. Add granola just before serving to keep it crunchy. You can prepare the smoothie base the night before and add toppings fresh in the morning. Substitute coconut milk with almond or oat milk if preferred. Use gluten-free granola if needed. For vegan version, use maple syrup instead of honey.
