- 0.5 tsp cinnamon
- 4.5 piece ice cubes
- 0.5 tsp grated fresh ginger optional
- 1 tsp honey if additional sweetness is desired optional

- Blend for approximately one minute until completely smooth.
- Taste and adjust consistency with additional milk if needed.
- Pour into a chilled glass and enjoy immediately.
Tips for GLP-1 users
Meal Prep: Freeze the banana, oats and peanut butter together in smoothie bags so only the dairy ingredients need to be added in the morning.
