At our house, we’re always looking for delicious, hearty breakfasts for the whole family. Bonus if they are quick and easy! I’m a huge proponent that breakfast (all meals, really) need not only carbs but protein as well. That’s why the new  Quaker® Real Medleys® Yogurt Cups caught my eye last time I was at Wal-Mart.

This yogurt with caramelized bananas and walnuts is the perfect 5 minute breakfast!There’s never been anything quite like this before- they are a shelf-stable yogurt that incorporate yogurt and multigrain granola with real fruit and crunchy nuts. You can find them on the cold cereal aisle and come in 3 tantalizing flavors-Strawberry Almond, Apple Cinnamon, and Raspberry Pecan.

Just by adding cold milk, they become a delicious, satisfying meal in themselves with 25 grams of whole grains and 10 grams of protein. I decided to add a fun topping of caramelized bananas and walnuts to make them even more yummy. Seriously, this whole breakfast comes together in under 5 minutes!

Start off by adding the milk to the Quaker Real Medleys and let it sit. It is SO easy to make this treat!

Then, melt 1 Tbs. brown sugar and 1 Tbs. honey in an iron skillet.

When it’s nice and sizzling, add in 1 Tbs. walnuts and one sliced banana.

Stir the walnuts frequently- they go from toasty to burnt very quickly! Let everything caramelize for another minute or so, then just add the bananas and walnuts on top of the yogurt cup. Yum!
