Time 5 min
Banana Sundaes for breakfast? Well, it might not be exactly what you had in mind, but this power-packed "sundae" comes loaded with nuts and seeds for a filling and very yummy breakfast. Our reader sent us this delicious recipe saying, "I was looking for an energy breakfast that was quick yet gave me lots of good ingredients. I always buy the carob nut energy squares out of the bulk bins, so I began to add this to my banana and it just grew to this sundae. Enjoy!" We found this dish especially tasty with almond milk, as it complements the crunch of the sprinkled cereal quite well. Use your choice of nut butter: peanut, almond or soy nut butters are great.
