sunday breakfast

Morning!  Just wanted to do a quick post and tell you about the BEST banana scramble I have made to date.  AND you should probably make it for your Sunday morning breakfast.

Why didn’t I top these with fresh fruit before?

Whoa. Delicious.

Chocolate Pnut Butter Banana Scramble

  • 3/4 banana
  • 3T rolled oats
  • 1/2T chia seeds
  • 1T shredded unsweetened coconut
  • 2T milk
  • 1/2t cinnamon
  • 1T pnut butter
  • 1T dark chocolate chips
  • splash of vanilla
  1. Mash everything together.
  2. Heat + grease a pan over medium heat.
  3. Plop into pan and flatten a little.  Heat on 1 side for 3-5min, until browned. 
  4. Flip to other side [or mash around] and cook for another 3+ minutes.

Top with fresh berries, jelly or more nut butter.  The little bit of chocolate was amazing in this.  Nice + melty.  Kelsey and I both looooved it!  It was super filling too on the Ezekiel sprouted grain muffin!  Yum.

People falling from the sky at night with flames coming out of their feet!  It was pretty amazing, right over head.

That breakfast scramble looks so good! I've been in a green monster rut as of late, so this might be the thing to get me out of it. Not that GM ruts are really that terrible of a thing....lol.

I am totally going to try that banana scramble for breakfast ;)

That banana scramble looks so good! Thanks for sharing the recipe! Those pics of the flames are pretty ridiculous -- they remind me of some of my dad's fishing jigs -- little squiggly squid looking things!

It looks so lovely where you are - great pics!
