1 banana (can be a frozen one from your stash of super ripe bananas in the freezer)
1 tbsp almond butter
2 tbsp coconut cream (coconut milk that has been kept in the fridge and is now solid)
Sprinkle of cinnamon (1/8 tsp?)
1/2 tsp cocoa powder
1 shot espresso (optional).
Add all ingredients to the blender and blend until smooth. Keeps well in a travel mug while you drive to work. If you were eating dairy, I'm sure that you could easily substitute a few tablespoons of plain or vanilla yogurt for the coconut cream. If you don't add the espresso, you will need to add a bit of water to thin it out.
Shopping tip - Almond butter is cheapest (by far) at Costco. I believe that a large jar of it costs $8.99. Small jars (half the size) at other stores cost about $6-8/jar.
