The "Crunch" Banana Breakfast is a great way for any backpacker to
start their day. Trail food can be made from simple ingredients, in a
practical way, and this is one of the results!
Ingredients
*1 Banana
*Peanut Butter (or any nut butter) to taste. We suggest 2 Tbsp.
*1 Container of Yogurt (Boston Creme, Chocolate, etc.)
*1/8 C. Grapenuts
Home Preparation
Package ingredients appropriately - Yogurt is usually good for a
couple days as long as the weather is cool in nature.
Banana Transport - Laurie Ann March, author of http://www.aforkinthetrail.com, suggests
these containers by www.bananasaver.com - They really
work!
Trail Preparation
Cut Banana in half, peel the half then slice in half down the middle
so that you have 4 spears
Spread peanut butter on banana slices and place into bowl</li>
Spoon out the container of yogurt onto the banana spears</li>
Top with Grape Nuts cereal
Notes
This backpacking recipe for breakfast is well balanced, but the
larger hiker might find two servings better to start the morning off
with.
