Oatmeal banana smoothie

This is a perfect and healthier breakfast for a quick preparation. For this smoothie you can add apple or banana of your choice.  Add milk or yogurt. This smoothie is a basic preparation, try to add or reduce the ingredients of your choice.

Since I want to give this smoothie to my kids, I added nesquik. If your kids love strawberry flavor you can try that too. Try soaking almonds or dates and mix in smoothie for more healthier. This is an wholesome food that your tummy will be cooled and filled.

Ingredients:

  • Oatmeal - 1/4  cup
  • Banana - 1 (cut into slices and freeze overnight)
  • Nesquik - 1 tsp (chocolate flavor)
  • Sugar or honey - 2 tsp
  • Ground cinnamon - 1/2 tsp
  • Milk - 1/2 cup


Method:

Mix oatmeal, milk, nesquik , cinnamon powder in a bowl and refrigerate it over night. At the time of breakfast beat the oat mixture and banana in the blender to a smooth paste. If it is too thick, add more milk.

Note:
  • Soaking overnight helps a smooth and creamier texture. For immediate use, grind the oatmeal first and add all the other ingredients.
  • I used nesquik chocolate flavor,  you can use strawberry flavor or anything of your choice. You can use unsweetened coco powder too.
