(Culinary.net) Some mornings can be such a drag and make you feel exhausted. On those days, it looks like everyone is moving slow (especially the kids), getting ready seems like a big chore and making a wholesome and hearty breakfast feels nearly impossible.

You look at the clock and minute by minute you’re running even more behind. There is no time for a big breakfast with syrups and jams. You’re in a pinch but you need something fast, nutritious and filling for you and your loved ones.

Freshen up your morning with this Frothy Banana Shake, which is a simple and perfect on-the-go breakfast option. It’s healthy with fresh bananas, sweet with a hint of vanilla and frothy with blended dairy products.

To make this shake, add three cups of milk, frozen bananas, vanilla and almond extract to a blender. Blend  the ingredients together until smooth.

Pour into your favorite glass or to-go cup, dust with cinnamon and garnish with a banana slice.

This recipe is so simple and can be made in a hurry. Even the little ones can help with pouring the ingredients and pushing a button to blend if you have a little extra time for a lesson in the kitchen.

This is something you can make while on your way out of the door. There is little clean up and it’s something kids enjoy at home or on their way to school.
