Banana and Cinnamon Smoothie

Sometimes in life it’s the simplest recipes that are often the tastiest. I’m really not sure about the origin of smoothies. Perhaps they’re inspired by tropical mocktails. All I know is that this banana smoothie makes the ultimate summer breakfast.
Although I love a good health shake, with yoghurt and honey, occasionally I enjoy a more indulgent smoothie with lots of ice cream, the consistency of a yummy thick shake. You only need 3 ingredients and the secret here is a pinch of ground cinnamon.

Recipe
Serves 1
Ingredients
1 large banana, roughly chopped
1 1/2 cups (375ml) cold milk
1-2 scoops of vanilla ice cream
Pinch of ground cinnamon
Method
1) Place all the ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Serve immediately with an extra dusting of cinnamon. The best blender under 200 will suit.
Tip:
If you’re feeling really indulgent hold the cinnamon and replace with a dusting of cocoa/drinking chocolate.
