Ingredients
For the bowl

3. Add the fruit
Top with fresh berries and sliced banana for natural sweetness and antioxidants.
4. Add crunch
Sprinkle chopped nuts and a pinch of cinnamon to add texture, healthy fats and warm flavor.
5. Serve
Enjoy immediately for a creamy, fresh and nutrient-packed Mediterranean breakfast.
