Blackstrap molasses is highly nutritional, a good source of energy and carbohydrates and packed with vitamins and minerals.
Ingredients

1 large, sliced, frozen banana
1 tablespoon blackstrap molasses
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
Chopped almonds or pecans (optional)
1. In a small bowl, combine the milk and rolled oats, stirring to combine. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours or overnight to allow the oats to absorb the milk.
