Bionicos are made of fresh fruit covered in a dreamy cream sauce and topped with granola. YES PLEASE!

I first saw this at a juice shop in Tijuana, but they’re originally from Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico.

It’s a DELICIOUS dessert, but it’s light enough to eat for breakfast.

Some places make the sauce very sweet. This recipe, though, is like Goldie Locks.

It’s just right!

How to Make the Cream Sauce

  • Add the yogurt, crema mexicana, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla to a small bowl.
  • Whisk until smooth.
  • Set aside until ready to use.

Pro Tip:


If you can’t find crema mexicana, substitute for creme fraiche or use more yogurt.

We are using DAIRY products here. Be very cautious of any refrigeration that needs to happen.

Specifically, if you are making this dessert ahead of time, place it in the fridge so the cream won’t go bad.

How to Assemble

  • Chop up the fruit.
  • Add the fruit to a serving bowl and cover with the cream sauce.
  • Top with granola and shredded coconut.

The cream sauce and granola are a MUST. You might even see honey drizzled on top.

What kinds of fruit to use varies from place to place, on the other hand. That’s totally up to you.

Other fruits you can use:


Pineapple
Strawberries
Mango
Watermelon
Orange
Grapes

Seriously, it’s whatever fruit your heart desires.
