Açaí Bowls {no added sugar}

Hi hi! Today I wanted to share my take on a classic açaí bowl with no added sugar (maple syrup or honey). It’s all about the base consistency and my recipe will help you achieve the perfect thickness and yummy flavor.

Frozen açaí doesn’t have any sugar in it so sweetening it up with other frozen fruit and a date is key! I added avocado for a healthy fat component and a scoop of protein (optional) to help me hit my daily goal. I’ve found smoothies are a great way to get your kids (or yourself) the nutrients your body needs: fats, seeds, antioxidants and protein.

Complete the bowl by adding toppings of your liking. Here I used grain-free granola, strawberries, blueberries, hemp seeds, chia seeds, bee pollen and an almond butter drizzle. YUM!

Below is a list of ingredients and steps to make. Enjoy!
