🍌 Warm Cinnamon & Nut Butter Smoothie Bowl 🍌

Ingredients:

• 1 ripe banana (fresh or slightly warmed)

• 1/2 cup almond milk (or milk of your choice)

• 1/4 cup rolled oats

• 1 tbsp almond or peanut butter

• 1/2 tsp cinnamon

• 1/4 tsp ground ginger (optional, for a warming kick)

• 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

• 1 scoop of protein powder (optional, for extra protein)

• 1-2 tbsp hot water (to adjust thickness)

Toppings:

• Sliced banana or apple

• Chopped nuts (like almonds, walnuts, or pecans)

• Granola (for crunch)

• A drizzle of almond or peanut butter

• A sprinkle of cinnamon

Instructions:

1. Warm the Ingredients: In a small saucepan, heat the almond milk and rolled oats on low until warm but not boiling. Stir frequently for about 3-5 minutes, or until the oats are slightly softened.

2. Blend the Smoothie Base: In a blender, combine the warm almond milk and oats, banana, nut butter, cinnamon, ginger (if using), vanilla extract, and protein powder. Blend until smooth and creamy. If it's too thick, add a bit of hot water to reach your desired consistency.

3. Pour & Top: Pour the warm smoothie into a bowl and add your favourite toppings — sliced fruit, nuts, granola, and a drizzle of nut butter work beautifully. Sprinkle with a dash of cinnamon for extra warmth.

4. Enjoy: Grab a spoon, dig in, and enjoy the cozy warmth!
