Looking for easy low carb breakfast recipes? Try this Low Carb Açaí Bowl with Keto Granola. If you add a spoonful of peanut butter, it tastes like a peanut butter and jelly soft serve ice cream – addictive! It’s vegan, low in sugar (no banana here), packed with vitamin C and high in healthy fats + protein to keep you satisfied for hours.

During wintertime your body probably craves warming breakfasts like this keto porridge, but on hot summer days it’s nice to switch it up with a refreshing smoothie bowl. Still, if your digestion tends to slow down (aka you tend to get constipated) when you eat cold foods, you can serve this smoothie bowl at room temperature and/or add warming spices like fresh ginger.

I don’t like having a smoothie as a drink; I find that chewing helps me to feel more satisfied. That’s why I always add crunchy toppings on porridge and smoothie bowls such as coconut flakes, pumpkin seeds, ALL GOOD keto granola… Just the act of chewing crunchy foods will help you to feel satisfied faster and longer = you won’t crave snacks = this makes it a lot easier to maintain a healthy weight.

Açaí is a Brazilian superfood berry with a bitter-sweet fruity flavor. It gives the smoothie a distinct flavor with unique health benefits, but you can absolutely make this smoothie without it too. Just use frozen berries if you don’t have açaí at home.

Enjoy!

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Blend the almond (or coconut) milk with the açaí powder, frozen berries and/or frozen zucchini, avocado and vanilla protein powder. You could also add extra protein powder, a spoonful of MCT oil and nut butter to make it a more filling and flavorful breakfast (that’s how I like to make it).
  2. Pour the smoothie into a bowl and garnish with your favorite toppings. I used berries and ALL GOOD peanut keto granola. It’s amazing with coconut flakes and pumpkin seeds too.

JULIE’S TIPS & TRICKS:

  • Don’t have açaí powder at home? Just use frozen berries.
  • Do you tend to feel cold in the morning or get constipated? Avoid cold smoothie bowls and serve this smoothie at room temperature instead.

Now I would love to hear from you!
