This Peanut Butter Acai Bowl is the perfect creamy, healthy, and peanut buttery breakfast! The recipe makes one thick smoothie bowl, best topped with fresh fruit, granola, and peanut butter.

I’ve gotten pretty crazy obsessed with acai bowls and all sorts of delicious smoothie bowls since I discovered I could make them at home in my Vitamix. They’re the perfect breakfast or mid-day snack, especially in the summertime when you need something to help cool you off.

At my place in Seattle, there was an acai bowl place on my street and they made the best peanut butter acai bowl. I would get it all the time. But why spend $12 when I can make it just as good at home…but even better because I can add all of my favorite toppings?!

This recipe definitely satisfies my cravings for the peanut butter açaí bowl I would get from my favorite spot. Just talking about it makes me desperately want to go make one! Good thing I have all the ingredients ;)

But first! I need to tell YOU all about it so you can go make one too. It’s really super simple. You’re making a smoothie, but with less liquid, so it turns out thick enough to eat with a spoon. Add toppings, and you have the next best thing to ice cream for breakfast.

Where do I buy açaí?

I buy the frozen acai unsweetened superfruit pack from Sambazon. You can find it in the frozen section of the grocery store, near the frozen fruit. Grab the frozen berries too, while you’re there! You can also find it at Trader Joe’s.

What’s in an açaí bowl?

The smoothie consists of frozen banana, which makes the bowl super creamy. It also has frozen strawberries, frozen blueberries, an acai packet, a big spoonful of peanut butter, and a little milk!

If peanut butter isn’t your thing, feel free to sub in almond butter, sunflower seed butter, cashew butter, or whatever your nut butter of choice is.

Once it’s all smooth and creamy, pour your blend into a bowl and add your toppings. I added fresh blueberries, strawberries, sliced bananas, granola, coconut flakes, and of course, some more peanut butter. Go crazy with whatever you have on hand!

This Peanut Butter Acai Bowl is one of my absolute favorite smoothie bowl recipes, and I hope it’ll become a favorite of yours as well! Enjoy :)
