Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup frozen pineapple
  • 1 banana sliced and frozen
  • 3 1/2 ounces frozen acai purée 1 package, you can use 2 for even more acai flavor
  • 1 cup fresh fruit of choice berries, pineapple, kiwi, and mango are all yummy
  • 1/2 cup yogurt Greek yogurt or coconut yogurt are both great
  • 1/2 cup granola

Method
 

  1. Place the acai smoothie base ingredients into a food processor or blender; if using a blender, add a splash of milk or juice and use a tamper to keep the mixture moving.
  2. Process the mixture in the food processor, scraping down the sides and breaking up chunks as necessary until smooth.
  3. Blend on low speed if using a blender, adding liquid as needed until smooth, and avoid increasing speed until the mixture is fully processed to protect the motor.
  4. Divide the acai smoothie base into two bowls, distribute the toppings evenly, and serve immediately.

Notes

Perfect Texture: I have learned that the secret to that thick, spoonable consistency is using as little liquid as possible, so I only add a tiny splash of juice if my blender is truly struggling
