Banana-Oat Morning Smoothie

Just because breakfast isn’t trending anymore, that doesn’t mean breakfast foods should be neglected. This delicious and athlete approved Banana-Oat Morning Smoothie includes all the fuel you need pre- or post-workout.

Bananas are loaded with fast-acting carbohydrates, and oats are high in fiber and complex carbs, which provide a sustained release of energy into the bloodstream.

For a healthy dose of fat and protein, we included hemp seeds, nut butter, and yogurt. And for a performance-boost and a reduction in muscle soreness, we also added a sprinkle of raw cacao and cinnamon.
