A close up shot of my coconut oil fried banana + cinnamon apple breakfast. It was amazing! I whipped this up in a jiffy as I had a really busy day yesterday and just wanted something sweet to quickly enjoy. This breakfast recipe works great as a snack (how I ate it yesterday) and can easily be doubled or tripled to please the whole family.
I used gluten free oats, no sugar or dairy. The sweetness comes from the banana and I added poms for that added crunch! This dish really reminds me of the beginning of the year.
My sister, Dena, lived in our flat at the beginning of the year and most mornings we would enjoy breakfast like this, talk about our goals and then go our separate ways to get on with our busy day. Needless to say this dish really symbolizes a calm place and a sense of relaxation – something I really need!
