RECIPE: Sesame, Banana & Walnut Breakfast Sandwiches

    I have a weird obsession with frozen things.

    Like to the point people may be concerned that I am causing myself frostbite of the oral area. (I’m not FYI)

    Yes my dental durability is such that I can delight in frozen berries, frozen peas, frozen brownies….pretty much any I desire BUT I entirely understand that this is not something others would necessarily want to join me in.

    These dreamy semi-fredo style coconut yoghurt stuffed breakfast sandwiches however…..oh yes chaps you’ll want in, oh yes indeed.

    The outer casing is simple, a lightly chewy twist on a nutty granola basically (& feel free to much on it as such – I definitely do!) which I’ve then simply filled with naturally sweet coconut goodness (use any yoghurt you wish though).

    And that’s pretty much it…..I’ll race you to the freezer!

    • 1 large ripe banana
    • 1 cup walnuts
    • 2 tablespoons sesame seeds
    • 2 cups jumbo oats 
    • 3 tablespoons coconut oil
    • 1 tablespoon tahini
    • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
    • 1 tablespoon raw cacao powder
    • Pinch salt
    • Coconut yogurt to fill
    1. Preheat your oven to 175C, line a tray with parchment or a silicone mat.
    2. Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl, add the coconut oil to a small pan & melt.
    3. Once liquid, mash with the banana & stir through the tahini until smooth, pour into the dry ingredients & fold together.
    4. Spread on your tray & bake for 22-25 mins keeping an eye on it towards the end. Leave to cool for 30 mins.
    5. Break into large pieces & lay 1/2 in the base of a lined dish, it doesn’t need to be a perfect fit. Spoon over the yoghurt & gently smooth, then cover with the remaining pieces.
    6. Freeze for 2 hours then cut into portions. Use within 2 months.
