Instructions

1

Break the banana into the blender, add the oats, honey, cold coffee, and milk.

Tip: The riper the banana, the sweeter it is (higher sugar content), so you need less honey. Its pectin content thickens the drink.
2

Throw in the ice cubes and blend on high speed for approx. 1 minute until completely smooth.

Tip: Oats need time for the blades to chop them up completely, otherwise the drink will be gritty.
3

Pour into a glass and consume immediately.

Tip: If left to stand, the oats absorb moisture and the drink thickens like pudding.
