Directions
Remove the frozen Açaí berry packs from the freezer and let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly.
Blend the Açaí Bowl base:
In a blender, combine the softened Açaí berry packs, ripe banana, frozen mango chunks, frozen pineapple chunks, and unsweetened coconut milk.
Blend until you achieve a smooth and thick consistency.
Prepare the toppings:
In a small bowl, mix the chia seeds with a few tablespoons of water and let them sit for a few minutes until they form a gel-like texture.
Toast the shredded coconut in a dry pan over low heat until it turns golden brown.
Slice the fresh berries for topping.
Assemble the Açaí Bowl:
Pour the Açaí blend into a bowl.
Add a layer of the chia seed mixture on top.
Sprinkle the granola and toasted shredded coconut over the bowl.
Arrange the fresh berries and mint leaves for an attractive garnish.
