I am drinking this as I rate it and its SUPER - I took earlier suggestions and froze the bananas; only used 1 cup of Milk; add about 1 teaspoon cinnamon, maybe little more; and then threw in some wheat germ. Sprinkled on top nutmeg and cinn. too. We love it.

I made this with only 1 cup milk and it was delicious. I think with 1.5 cups it would be too thin and milky rather than thick and filling. I also used pumpkin pie spice because I couldn't find my nutmeg. This was delicious! I'm sure it tastes amazing as written, but I made little variations to my taste. My 2 and 5 year old scarfed this stuff.

My 16 month old LOVES this recipe. He has it EVERY morning and drinks the whole recipe by himself. Most of the time we don't add the nutmeg. Thank goodness my 4 year old doesn't care! It is an excellent substitute if you are trying to wean!

This was SO good! I made a few changes, but not many. I used 3/4 cup of soy milk, about a tsp of vanilla, and then the banana, honey and nutmeg. Blended it all together, then I added some ice cubes. When I tasted it, it blew my mind how much flavor was in it! Great recipe.

Made this and while i like the taste I plan on using frozen banana chucks next time so its texture is less runny and more like a milkshake. I love that it uses easy and healthful ingredients.

I doubled this recipe as I had two bananas that were ripe and ready for this recipe. I left out the nutmeg and added one cup of crushed ice (for the doubled recipe) and it was a hit! I will be making this one again. Super easy!

This drink was phenomenal! I am tempted to make a triple batch right now. The banana nutmeg combination was perfect. Thanks for the wonderful recipe!

For a thicker smoothie, cut your banana into chunks and throw it in the freezer the day before. The banana "ice cubes" blend nicely! And if calories aren't an issue, sub. in some vanilla ice cream. ;-)
