Description

Bionicos are a traditional Mexican fruit bowl that combines a variety of fresh fruits with a creamy, sweet topping made from yogurt, sweetened condensed milk, and sour cream. This refreshing and nutrient-packed dish is perfect for breakfast or a healthy snack, topped with crunchy granola, nuts, and honey for added texture and flavor.


Ingredients

Scale

Creamy Topping

  • 1/3 cup plain yogurt
  • 1/3 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/3 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Fruit Mixture

  • 1 cup sliced strawberries
  • 2 medium bananas, sliced into rounds
  • 1 small Granny Smith apple, diced
  • 1 cup diced cantaloupe
  • 1 cup diced pineapple
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries

Toppings

  • Granola
  • Shredded coconut
  • Raisins
  • Sliced almonds
  • Pecans
  • Walnuts
  • Honey


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Creamy Topping: In a small bowl, combine the plain yogurt, sweetened condensed milk, sour cream, and vanilla extract. Stir well until all ingredients are fully blended to create a smooth, sweet cream mixture.
  2. Mix the Fruit: In a large bowl, add the sliced strawberries, banana rounds, diced Granny Smith apple, diced cantaloupe, diced pineapple, and fresh blueberries. Gently toss the fruits together to evenly distribute them without bruising.
  3. Assemble the Bowls: Divide the mixed fruit evenly into 4 serving bowls. Drizzle about 1/4 cup of the prepared sweet cream mixture over each bowl, coating the fruit lightly for a creamy finish.
  4. Add Toppings: Sprinkle each bowl with your desired toppings such as crunchy granola, sliced almonds, chopped pecans or walnuts, raisins, shredded coconut, and a drizzle of honey to add texture and extra sweetness. Serve immediately for best freshness.

Notes

  • Use fresh, ripe fruits for the best flavor and texture in your Bionicos.
  • Adjust the amount of sweetened condensed milk if you prefer a less sweet topping.
  • Feel free to substitute any fruits based on seasonality or personal preference.
  • This recipe is best served fresh and does not store well once the topping is added as fruit can become soggy.
  • For a dairy-free version, use coconut yogurt and a non-dairy condensed milk alternative.
