Servings: 1

- 1 cup nonfat Greek yogurt or Skyr
- ½ scoop vanilla protein powder I used Clean Simple Eats

- 1 teaspoon coconut oil or butter
- 2 teaspoon maple syrup optional but gives that caramel vibe
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- Pinch of salt
Optional Toppings
- 1 Tablespoon chopped walnuts or pecans
- Drizzle of peanut butter
- Sprinkle of flaky salt
Instructions
- Heat a small skillet over medium heat and add coconut oil, maple syrup and cinnamon.1 teaspoon coconut oil or butter, 2 teaspoon maple syrup, ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- Add sliced banana and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until golden and caramelized. Remove from pan and add walnuts. Toast for about 1 minute. Remove from heat.1 medium banana, 1 Tablespoon chopped walnuts or pecans
- Meanwhile, stir together yogurt and protein powder until smooth.1 cup nonfat Greek yogurt, ½ scoop vanilla protein powder
- Pour yogurt into a bowl, top with warm caramelized bananas, toasted walnuts, a drizzle of peanut butter and flakey sea salt.
Notes
- Make it dairy-free: You can swap the Greek yogurt for a thick dairy-free yogurt if needed. Just keep in mind the protein content will likely be lower. I like Siggi's plant-based yogurt because it's higher in protein.
- Protein powder tip: Different protein powders vary in sweetness and thickness. If your yogurt mixture becomes too thick, simply stir in a splash of milk to loosen it.
