Calories: 274kcal
- 1 cup Low Fat Milk
- ¾ cup Low Fat Yogurt
- ¼ cup Muesli
- 2 medium Bananas sliced and frozen
- ½ teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons Pure Maple Syrup or Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- Use frozen fruit. For the best, thickest, creamiest consistency, I recommend using frozen bananas. Simply peel the fruit and cut into bite sized portions. Freeze overnight on a tray, then pop into a zip-top bag for longer term storage.
- Opt for a high powered blender. While it is an investment upfront, I highly suggest you splurge on a good quality blender to make your life easier. Vitamix, Nutribullet, and Ninja are all reputable brands to consider.
- Drink immediately. As with most smoothies, this banana muesli number is best enjoyed straight from the blender. Keep in an insulated cup if you plan on sipping it slowly; this will preserve the creamy, frozen appeal. Otherwise, any leftovers can be poured into popsicle molds for a healthy frozen treat. Try layering in some whole muesli for a bit of texture in your popsicles!
