How about some peanut butter and banana slices to kick off the day?
I’ll never say no to that combination!
For breakfast this morning, I topped a toasted bagel with natural peanut butter, a sliced banana and a sprinkling of cinnamon.
I dreamed about this breakfast before I got out of bed this morning and it was all the motivation I needed to throw off the covers and make my way into the kitchen.
Since I elected to sleep in this morning, my workout will have to occur sometime in the middle of the work day. I’m thinking a Piloxing class or a simple treadmill run with some upper body strength training may be on the agenda for today.
Off to work!
Kelby says
Only the best breakfast combo ever!
Linz @ Itz Linz says
can’t ever go wrong with a peanut butter banana combo!
Paige @ Your Trainer Paige says
I don’t blame you! I’m always ok with a mid-morning workout (any later than that, and it risks being skipped, though.)
Julie says
Same! If I don’t workout before noon, I’m not going to… 🙂
Lucy says
Mmm! I mix cinnamon into plain oatmeal every.single.morning. Love it.
Jen @ pretty little grub says
Definitely a favourite of mine! And the added cinnamon really just makes it amazing. Inspiration for tomorrow’s breakfast!
Shel@PeachyPalate says
I love it! Though I prefer grilling the banana too so it’s warm, gooey and even sweeter!
Audrey @ In Shape Cupcake says
I always get excited for my breakfast when its time to go to bed. Its like my favorite meal of the day. And its funny how a breakfast like that tastes soooooo freaking good! Haha!
Kelsie says
what is Piloxing? sounds interesting!
Holly @ EatGreatBEGreat says
PB and banana on a bagel sounds like a perfect way to start the day!
Evey says
I made something similar this morning but used sun butter (allergic to PB which I know is cray cray) a little honey, and banana all wrapped up in a whole wheat tortilla! Really easy for on-the-go!

That breakfast looks great, I add a little flax seed to mine for some more staying power. Question I have it, what kind of bagel do you eat? I tried so many, but most are so heavy and doughy, so I usually use english muffins.
Ashley @ Saving Money in your Twenties says
I love days like that– where you already know exactly what you want for breakfast RIGHT when you wake up! 🙂
Livi says
Sleeping in is such a wonderful feeling! Sometimes it’s too good to pass up!
Christine@ Apple of My Eye says
Mhmm you can’t go wrong with the classic!
Dana @ Conscious Kitchen Blog says
There’s no motivation to get out of bed like a delicious breakfast! 🙂
Brynn says
Your breakfast reminds me of when I first started reading your blog a few years back. You were the queen of bagels and sandwich thins for breakfast and lunch! Total flash back.
Julie says
Haha oooh the good ol’ days! Thanks for reading for so long!
cait @pieceofcait says
YUM, anything with peanut butter is a winner in my book!
Ashley @ My Food N Fitness Diaries says
I had pretty much an identical breakfast this morning! I also added chia seeds on mine to kick up the nutrition and add a little crunch. I think PB+banana on toast/bagel/English muffin will always be one of my favorite simple meals/snacks. It never disappoints!
Julie says
Oh man I should’ve done that! I love adding chia seeds, too!
Erin @ Girl Gone Veggie says
Peanut butter and bananas is such a good combo! Second only to almond butter and sweet potatoes for me!
Becky@TheSavedRunner says
Peanut butter and banana never gets old. Not even joking, I was having a banana with peanut butter as a mid morning snack as I read this post. 🙂
Polly @ Tasty Food Project says
PB and banana is such a great combo! I also like it in a smoothie!
Ashley Carol says
Peanut butter and just about anything is a winning combination! How many times a week do you workout? Do you count teaching as working out?
Ashley Pitt @ A Lady Goes West says
Yes, a classic combo. What kind of bagels do you eat?
Sarah @ Sweet Miles says
Always a classic!
Hilary says
Oh I used to live off of this 🙂 So good!
Veronika says
OMG! I had a banana and PB on Eziekeil (?) toast for breakfast- great minds think alike. 🙂
Jill says
Peanut butter and banana on toast is my go to breakfast. I always forget about adding cinnamon though. Need to remember to do that at some point this week to spice it up a little!
Amanda says
You can’t ever go wrong with that combination. I love almknd butter with banana even more i think. I would love to try a piloxing class. I need to find one around here.
Jenn@ Mark My Miles! says
Love that combo. I eat it every day : )
Eileen says
Breakfast is the best meal! I think 75% of my meals could be classified as breakfast! I have a very similar breakfast when I’m on the go – Dark German Wheat toast with Almond butter and sliced banana with a drizzle of honey!
Hillary | Nutrition Nut on the Run says
I don’t think I go a day without nut butter + banana — my favorite!
Jonna says
Hi Julie,
What’s the name of the peanut butter that you use? I’m looking for a natural brand!
Thanks!
Julie says
This was Publix deli all natural peanut butter. 🙂
Lauren @ Focused To Be Fit says
YES! My favorite combo there is – PB&B!
char eats greens says
Ya, you really can’t say no to that combo. Unfortunately, I ran out of PB a few days ago and have yet to replace is. Send the warning flare!!
Divya @ Eat. Teach. Blog. says
I just heard of Piloxing for the first time last week. I live under a rock. WHAT A FUN NAME!
Nikki @ grab your kicks says
That’s my favorite breakfast! I love peanut butter and cinnamon together. Mmmm!
Sarah @ Sarah Sincerely says
Definitely one of the best breakfast combos ever!
Eileen says
That looks awfully delicous. I think I will have myself one of those tomorrow morning! 🙂
