Yes, school day mornings are busy around here. Everyone seems to allow themselves just enough time to get up, get cleaned up, get dressed and get ready to catch the bus. There isn’t a lot of time allotted to eating – let alone eating something healthy.

When my girls were younger, it was easy to throw a bowl of hot oatmeal down infront of them for breakfast. The oatmeal would be eaten and they’d be ready for their day. As a teenager and a tween – things are different. The fact is they still need to eat a decent breakfast, so I’m always looking for ways recipes that are quick, easy and delicious…oh, and that my kids will actually want to eat.

Muffins and quick breads are a great option. A slice of this oatmeal banana bread along with a dish of fresh fruit, makes a simple breakfast.
