- 2 Weetabix / Weet-bix (or other wheat biscuit)
- ½ cup (125ml) Milk
- ½ Banana
- ⅛ teaspoon Cinnamon
- ¾ cup (180g) Plain Yogurt
- ¼ teaspoon Vanilla
- ½ cup (60g) Frozen Raspberries, defrosted
Crumble the Weetabix into a bowl, jar or container and stir in the milk. Push down with a fork or back of a spoon until the mixture is compacted. You may need to let it sit for a minute to fully absorb the milk.
Mash the banana and place on top of the Weetabix layer. Spread over to create an even layer. Sprinkle with cinnamon.
Mash the defrosted berries and stir into the yogurt, along with the vanilla, until fully mixed. Spoon over the banana and spread to create an even layer.
Cover and refrigerate overnight (or for at least 1 hour). Top with toppings of choice (fresh fruit, chia jam, peanut butter etc)
Toppings are optional but add extra flavour and texture to the dish. Let your kids have fun with the toppings and proving them with some fresh fruit, dried fruit, nut butters, nuts, seed and spices to choose from. Toppings should be age-appropriate, be mindful of the toppings you use for young children. (e.g. Nuts are a choking hazard and should be missed out or finely chopped.)
If you prefer a sweeter breakfast you can add a little maple syrup, honey or sweetener of choice (not recommended for under 2s)
