Banana Bread in a Bowl

October 15, 2007
by Chocolate-Covered Katie

When I’m not in a rush, one of my favorite breakfasts (aside from all those crazy oatmeal concoctions)  is Banana Bread Blender Cereal. It has all the flavor and nutrition of moist, delicious banana bread, just in a different form. This also makes a great snack.

Banana Bread Blender Cereal

You will need:
1 banana (I use a frozen one, but you don’t have to)
1-2 tablespoons walnuts
1 cup non-dairy milk
1 cup flake cereal (such as Arrowhead Mills’ spelt, kamut, or oat bran flakes, etc.)
2 teaspoons good vanilla extract

Put all the ingredients into a blender, and blend. Now eat!

    Great idea. Sounds E-Z, too.

    Great idea- I would never have thought to put cereal in a blender. And I think the frozen banana is a must. They’re so much better that way!

    I like the idea of adding cereal, a perfect addition to any smoothie! Breakfast is so my favorite meal…

    For some crunchiness, I think I won’t blend the cereal!

    Yummy. Sounds good, simple, and nutritious!

    I was given the book as a christmas gift, and Andy and I made an entire dinner out of various appetisers for his family, and everyone loved everything. It’s an omni-pleaser, at least!

    I LOVE this idea! As a chronic breakfast skipper maybe I should try to wake up with this one. Putting cereal in there for some added fibre is a great idea too. (Plus it sounds yummy and if it’s yummy I’m more likely to actually stick with it!).

    Right I’m off to hunt down these oatmeal and pudding blender recipes of yours now!

    Yes, that sounds great. But do you drink it or eat it with a spoon?

    AND this!! So good!
