Dreamy acai bowl

Name: Dreamy acai bowl
Prep time: 35 min
Total time: 55 min
Yield: 3
Ingredients: 50 g shelled almonds; 2 tsp vanilla paste; 3 tsp white almond cream; 3 tbsp maple syrup; 3 tsp honey; 1 tbsp Hemp seeds; 30 g macadamia nuts; 4 Medjool dates; 60 g Brazil nuts; 30 g pecan nuts; 2 tbsp sunflower seeds; 1 ½ dl almond drink; 100 g frozen blueberries; 200 g frozen organic açai puree; 2 bananas; 1 tsp coconut oil; 4 tbsp rolled oats; 2 pinch Himalayan salt; ¾ tsp cinnamon

If it was down to me, I would have Switzerland's morning croissant replaced with an acai bowl! Not only is this dish incredibly tasty, but it also contains so many vitamins and nutrients that you're guaranteed a wonderfully energetic start to the day! As well as being packed with thousands of antioxidants, acai berries are also high in fibre, contain Omega 3, 6 & 9, and are completely free from refined sugar. If you are not yet familiar with the acai berry (which is now finally also available as a frozen puree!), I can only suggest you try out this recipe as soon as possible! P.S. In Brazil – where acai berries grow abundantly in the Amazon rainforest – Brazilians love to enjoy their acai topped with crunchy granola, slices of banana and berries. Me too! Personally I love mine with crunchy muesli.

How it's done

Crunchy granola

Chop all of the nuts medium-fine using a knife or food processor, transfer to a bowl. Add all the remaining ingredients, mix well, spread onto a baking tray lined with baking paper.

Bake for approx. 20 mins. in the centre of an oven preheated to 170°C. Separate with a fork after 10 mins. Remove the granola from the oven, leave to cool.

Puree

Using a powerful blender, blend all of the ingredients until smooth and creamy. Divide into 3 bowls.

To serve & decorate

Divide the puree into 3 bowls, decorate with the granola, sliced banana, almond butter, honey and berries. Serve immediately.

Good to know

Tip:	Always have a supply of peeled, ripe bananas, chopped into pieces and stored in small freezer bags in the freezer. They give the acai bowl the perfect ice cream consistency.
Tip:	You can also prepare double the amount of granola and store the other half in the freezer or in a well-sealed container in the fridge. Simply add some cold almond milk, oat milk or other type of milk and a handful of fresh berries or sliced banana for a quick and satisfying breakfast.
Note:	For a gluten-free alternative, replace the regular oat flakes with gluten-free oat flakes, quinoa flakes or millet flakes.
