Instructions:
Prepare the acai bowl base:
Place all the ingredients for the acai bowl into a high-powered blender like Vitamix or Blendtec, and puree until smooth. You may need to add more liquid if desired.
Make the guava puree:
Combine the chopped guava and water in a food processor or powerful blender. Blend on high speed until smooth. If you find that the mixture is too thick, you can add a little bit more water.
Assemble the acai bowls:
Divide the prepared acai mixture between two serving bowls. Top each bowl with your choice of optional toppings.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
Note: For a thicker consistency, use less liquid when blending the acai and more water when making the guava puree. Alternatively, you could also freeze the bananas before blending them to achieve a creamier texture.
