Add cinnamon to the mixture.

Pour in 1/2 cup of olive oil or coconut oil, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 1/2 cup of maple syrup.

Mix all the ingredients together thoroughly.

Spread the mixture onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring it stays together for thickness.

Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown.

While the granola is baking, prepare the acai by blending the acai packets with blueberries, mangoes, strawberries, and pineapple until smooth.

Once blended, set the acai mixture aside and allow the granola to cool after baking.

Cut a banana into slices.

Break the cooled granola into desired sizes for topping.

Drizzle melted peanut butter and honey over the acai bowl before serving.
