Breakfast banana boost is a super easy overnight oats recipe which will give you that much needed boost in the morning.
Here’s a healthy option breakfast recipe that I call breakfast banana boost.
It doesn’t take longer than 5 minutes to measure out all the ingredients and mix them up in a bowl ready for the morning.
It’s similar to my version of Bircher Muesli, in that it needs to be made the evening before, and stored in the fridge overnight.
This way the oats have time to absorb the liquid and the banana flavour, which is what gives you the “boost” in the morning!
So, quite simply, put all the ingredients go into a medium sized bowl / casserole dish, the night before you want it for breakfast, and then refrigerate overnight. Decorate with fruit of your choice, or as I like it with some more banana slices and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
- 30 g porridge oats
- 150 ml no fat Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp skimmed milk
- 2 – 3 drops of vanilla essence.
- 1 tbsp sultanas
- 1 sliced banana
- sliced Banana
- Cinnamon or All Spice
- Mix everything together in a bowl / casserole dish; ensure the banana slices are covered in the liquid, cover the dish and put in the fridge overnight.
- When ready to serve, spoon the mixture into a breakfast / serving bowl and top with some extra banana slices, then sprinkle with cinnamon or all spice.
You could also try changing / varying the toppings too. There’s no limit of flavour combinations! 🙂

Yep, I am 100% there with you Carla. 🙂 Isn’t it so much easier to have a relaxing morning with this pre-made the night before? Sets you off in a better mood for the day I think!
I just had overnight oats this morning and I love the idea of putting a banana in to sit overnight! I usually just throw one on top so I can’t wait to try it!

Thanks for your comment Kelly! 😀
There’s something about putting the banana in the oats overnight. The flavour from the banana just seems to permeate through the whole dish!
I just stared at that bowl of deliciousness for like 5 minutes. HA HA HA!

I can guarantee that if the bowl were real, you wouldn’t be staring at it for quite so long, as you would have scoffed it down.
You are right Gigi it really is deliciousness! 😀
