After seeing the deliciousness that is LA based Amazebowls on Instagram, I just had to try my hand at my own version since flying to LA for breakfast wasn’t really an option. Amazebowls are acai smoothies of a sort served in a coconut half and then topped with whatever toppings you crave from fresh fruit to shredded coconut to edible flowers and seeds. Today I will share my easy recipe for making your own tropical breakfast dreams come true right in your own home.

Now doesn’t that just look amazing and delicious?! There is no real recipe for these tropical fruit breakfast bowls. You will simply want to start with a fresh coconut that you have opened (I like to use a hammer and screw driver to get it started and ensure an even break).

Then layer in your favorite extra thick smoothie (I usually use a banana, a little fruit juice, and then whatever frozen fruit I have on hand) and top with your favorite cut up tropical fruit like raspberries, mango, kiwi, pineapple, strawberries, pitaya. The last step is to add on a bit of shredded coconut, a few pieces of edible flower petals, and seeds like chia or hemp.

That my friends is pure breakfast bliss! And seriously, how fun would it be to make up a batch of these for a summer brunch with the gals? You could have all the toppings set out and then just whip up a batch of smoothies and let everyone create their own perfect bowl. Sounds like the perfect party to me!
