Intense cold brew coffee is paired with sweet banana and maple syrup for a well-balanced breakfast smoothie that will keep you full until lunch. Oats lend body to the smoothie, while also adding nutritional value. First, you’ll make a combination of milk and oats to soften them into an oatmeal-like consistency. The softened oats and milk get blended up with banana, cold-brewed coffee, and maple syrup. Cold-brewed coffee is usually in the refrigerated drinks section of grocery stores. But, if you can’t find it, you could also substitute chilled home-brewed coffee or espresso. Ingredients ½ cup whole milk, warmed ¼ cup old-fashioned rolled oats ½ cup chilled cold-brewed coffee 3 tablespoons pure maple syrup 1 banana, sliced 1 cup ice Directions Combine warm milk and oats in a small bowl. Let stand until oats begin to soften, about 10 minutes. Place oats mixture, coffee, syrup, banana, and ice in a blender; process until smooth, about 1 minute. Serve immediately. .
