Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 slices of whole grain bread
  • 2 ripe bananas
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup granola (your choice)
  • 1/4 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or almonds work well)
  • Fresh berries (strawberries, blueberries, or raspberries) for topping
  • Chocolate syrup (optional, for drizzling)
  • Mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Choose Your Bread: Select your favorite whole grain bread, such as multigrain or sourdough.
  2. Toast the Bread: Toast the slices in a toaster or under the broiler until golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes. Watch closely to prevent burning.
  3. Let It Cool: Remove the toasted bread and let it cool slightly to prevent toppings from sliding off.
  4. Slice the Bananas: Peel and slice the bananas into thin rounds, about 1/4 inch thick.
  5. Mix the Yogurt: In a medium bowl, combine Greek yogurt, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon. Stir until smooth.
  6. Spread the Yogurt Mixture: Generously spread the yogurt mixture over each slice of toasted bread.
  7. Layer the Bananas: Arrange banana slices on top of the yogurt layer, overlapping slightly for visual appeal.
  8. Add Granola and Nuts: Sprinkle granola evenly over the bananas, followed by the chopped nuts for added texture.
  9. Top with Berries: Scatter fresh berries over the toast for a pop of color and flavor.
  10. Drizzle with Chocolate Syrup: Optionally, drizzle chocolate syrup over the top for a sweet touch.
  11. Garnish: Add mint leaves on top for freshness and presentation.
  12. Slice and Serve: Cut the toast into halves or quarters for easy eating. Serve immediately while warm.
  13. Enjoy: Gather family or friends and enjoy this fun and healthy breakfast!

Notes

  • Make It Vegan: Substitute Greek yogurt with plant-based yogurt and use maple syrup instead of honey.
  • Add More Fruits: Get creative with toppings like sliced peaches, kiwi, or dried fruit.
  • Experiment with Spices: Add a pinch of nutmeg or cardamom to the yogurt mixture for a warm spice note.
  • Nut Butter Option: Spread almond or peanut butter on the toast before adding the yogurt mixture for extra protein.
  • Make It Ahead: Prepare the yogurt mixture and slice bananas the night before for a quick breakfast.
  • Perfect for Meal Prep: This recipe is great for meal prep!
