Those were my words to Elise this morning when she told me she'd like a banana split for breakfast. My version is "almost" vegan (I say almost because I don't bother buying vegan sugar--too expensive--and there's a small drizzle of honey) and quite healthy! Banana split boats would make it even prettier, I suppose, but the girls really didn't care. They ate it right up anyway!
We also had a tea party at breakfast this morning. It was quite fancy. The girls wore "their best." Leah was hamming it up today!
Lily looks like maybe she needs a nap....
"Take my picture now, Mommy!"
Recipe for Breakfast Banana Splits:
Make hot cereal of choice (we used Malt-o-Meal sweetened with a bit of brown sugar or pure maple syrup).
Slice bananas in half length-wise and width-wise. Place 2 quarters in each bowl. Add a dollop of jam, crushed pineapple, or frozen fruit, slightly thawed (raspberry & cherry jam were our choices today).
Then top with whipped cream. Today I used whipped coconut cream sweetened with a bit of powdered sugar, so it would be a little sweeter for the girls. (To make whipped coconut cream: just buy unsweetened coconut cream--I have the Savoy brand--and whip with an electric mixer. Sweeten or add flavor as desired.)
