Prep Time: 15 minutes
Servings: 2-3

Ingredients:

  • 1 medium banana
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2/3 cup rolled oats
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 scoops protein powder
  • 1/4 cup pecan pieces
  • 1/4 cup pecan halves
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup (optional)

Directions:

  1. Add banana, eggs, rolled oats, cinnamon and protein powder to a blender. Blend on medium speed until mixture is well blended.
