Açaí berries grow on the açaí palm and can be frozen and blended together like a smoothie. The açaí bowl is a dish known in Brazil as açaí na tigela which uses these berries along with the layering of other various fruits. Creative options for add-ins are endless. Bananas, berries, tropical, and stone fruits, along with a granola topping, nuts, seeds, or coconut flakes are most popular.
In celebration of National Macadamia Nut Day (September 4th), this recipe includes toasted macadamia nut granola for an extra nutty flavor and crunchy texture. And I combined it with the yummy goodness of homemade fresh peach pie (made with peaches I harvested from the tree).
I hope you enjoy this recipe! Let me know in the comments below if you make it and if you like any particular ingredients in your açaí bowl.
