A thick, fruit-crowned breakfast bowl that feels like a treat but eats clean. Here it's built on frozen acai packets, frozen banana and milk of choice -- a easy, breakfast recipe that starts by let the frozen acai packets sit at room temperature 2-3 minutes so they blend, and is ready in roughly 25 minutes.

Ready in 25 minutes -- genuinely doable on a weeknight.

An easy, forgiving method -- hard to get wrong on a first try.

Built around frozen acai packets, so the flavor comes from real ingredients, not a spice packet.

  • 1 frozen banana
  • 1/4 cup milk of choice
  • 1 tbsp honey

Method

1

Let the frozen acai packets sit at room temperature 2-3 minutes so they blend more easily.

2

Put the acai, frozen banana, milk, and honey in a blender.

3

Blend on low, stopping to scrape down the sides, until thick and smooth. Add milk only 1 tablespoon at a time - you want a thick, spoonable texture, not a drink.

4

Pour the thick blend into a chilled bowl and smooth the top with the back of a spoon.

5

Arrange the granola, fresh berries, and banana in neat rows on top.

6

Sprinkle with chia seeds and a drizzle of honey.

7

Serve immediately, before it melts.
