Ingredients 

  • 1 medium banana (about 170g measured with peel on)
  • 1 cup milk of choice
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds (40g)
  • 1 tablespoon peanut butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional but highly recommended)
  • 1/2 teaspoonn vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions 

  • In a mixing bowl or liquid measuring cup, mash the banana with a potato masher or the back of a fork until smooth. Small lumps are fine. Add the rest of the ingredients. Stir really well! Let it sit for 5 minutes and give it another good stir. Make sure there are no clumps.
  • Transfer to individual containers, close lids, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight so the chia seeds can fully soak up the milk.
  • When ready to eat, enjoy cold with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • if you desire a smoother consistency, blend the mixture. 
  • Refrigerate for up to 5 days. I don't recommend freezing.
