Acai blended with blueberries and pumpkin puree to create a delicious fall breakfast topped with sliced persimmon and crunchy granola. This acai berry pumpkin bowl is great for a quick early morning pick me up before starting your day.
It’s been awhile since I made myself an acai bowl so of course, I had to remedy that right away.
If you’re new to my blog, then you probably don’t know this yet, but I’m obsessed with breakfast bowls. The ones that are like thick smoothies made of blended frozen fruits and topped with tons of ingredients.
The thing I love about acai bowls is that they’re so delicious, addictive, and healthy. It’s usually blended with other fruits, then topped with more fruits, nuts, granola, and all these other goodies. Unfortunately, they’re also super expensive if you’re buying them.
But luckily, they can be super easy to make and you can customize them to your liking. What’s not to like, right? That’s what I’m really looking for in my breakfast. I want something healthy, tasty, and guilt free. Plus since these acai bowls are usually loaded with tons of fruits, nuts, and granola, they’re very nutritious and filling, the perfect way to start your morning.
Since it is autumn, and I love all things autumn, I wanted to create a fall twist to the acai bowl by adding pumpkin and persimmon. The sweetness of acai and blueberries complements the hint of pumpkin. Topped with sweet persimmon and granola, this is a breakfast bowl I’d love to eat every morning.
Hope you’ll like this acai berry pumpkin bowl as much as I do.
Add acai puree (I used Sambazon), frozen blueberries, and pumpkin puree into a blender, and blend until they become smooth and thick. Pour the acai base into a bowl. Top with sliced persimmon and granola.
Serve immediately cold.

This looks delicious and definitely sounds refreshing! Do you have any granola brand suggestions? I know granola from the store can sometimes be loaded with sugar, so I’m always on the look out for a healthier version. I’ve tried Udi’s Gluten Free Au Natural Granola most recently, and it seemed pretty good!

You can use whichever brand you like. But I like Nature Valley and Purely Elizabeth. I think Purely Elizabeth might be healthier.
