This stuff is like heaven. Not even kidding. Normally, I’m not that big of a fan of bananas. It’s not that I don’t like them, I just don’t really love them. Ya know? Anyway, this is my new favorite way to eat bananas and its sooooooooooooooo good.
This recipe is pretty good cold, but I was really looking for something to warm me up, so tried heating it. The easiest way to do this is in the microwave, but as I’m not a fan of the nutrient-zapper, I tried a saucepan. It worked easily and only took 2 minutes to heat up. Score!
As for toppings, the banana adds enough sweetness that I don’t think it needs honey or sugar, but that’s just personal preference. I like to enjoy this topped with berries or nuts, but experiment! Let me know what works!
Vegan Paleo Banana Noatmeal
Ingredients:
- 1 ripe banana
- 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk or other milk alternative (if you’re using canned coconut milk I recommend doing 1/2 milk, 1/2 water)
- 1/4 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup raw cashews (they should not be soaked)
- 1/4 cup shredded or chipped coconut
- 1 tablespoon flax-meal
- Tad of cinnamon (1/2 tsp?)
Directions:
- In a blender combine all your ingredients and blend. Stop before the mixture is completely smooth so that you preserve the oatmeal-like texture.
- Serve with blueberries, nuts, or other topping of your choice.
ENJOY!!
Inspiration (I made a few tweaks 😉 ) for this recipe was from ‘the whole smiths good food cookbook’.
