If you’re looking for a breakfast that’s quick, tasty, and feels like a dessert, this Biscoff Banoffee Overnight Weetabix is the perfect choice! It’s creamy, sweet, and has the comforting flavors of banana and Biscoff. Plus, it’s super easy to make the night before, so your morning starts with a treat without any fuss. Let me show you how to whip this up!
Method
Mash the Base
Begin by creating a smooth and cohesive base for your Biscoff Banoffee Overnight Weetabix. In a bowl or Tupperware container with a lid, combine 2 Weetabix biscuits, 75ml of milk, and one pot of protein yogurt (such as Lindahls). Using a spoon or fork, thoroughly mash the Weetabix until the mixture is fully combined and reaches a smooth consistency. This foundational layer will provide a creamy texture and protein boost for your breakfast.
Add the Banana
Next, prepare the banana to add natural sweetness and a pleasant texture contrast. Slice 40g of banana into thin, even pieces. Carefully layer the banana slices on top of the mashed Weetabix mixture, ensuring an even distribution across the surface. The banana not only enhances the flavor but also contributes essential vitamins and potassium to your meal.
Top with Yogurt
Mix your protein yogurt with a few drops of vanilla essence if desired for an extra creamy layer. Spread this yogurt mixture evenly over the banana layer, creating a rich and flavorful topping. This additional layer of yogurt intensifies the creaminess and adds a subtle hint of vanilla that complements the banana and Biscoff flavors beautifully.
Drizzle and Finish
Now, add the signature Biscoff flavor to your overnight Weetabix. Drizzle 1 teaspoon of melted Biscoff spread over the top of the yogurt layer, ensuring an even coating for that distinct caramelized taste. To introduce a delightful crunch, crumble one Biscoff biscuit and sprinkle the crumbs over the drizzled spread. This combination of smooth and crunchy textures elevates the overall eating experience.
Chill Overnight
The final step is to let your creation set and develop its flavors. Cover the bowl or Tupperware container with a lid to keep the mixture fresh and free from any fridge odors. Place it in the refrigerator and allow it to chill overnight. This resting period lets the Weetabix absorb the flavors and soften to the perfect consistency. In the morning, your Biscoff Banoffee Overnight Weetabix will be ready to enjoy—a delicious, hassle-free breakfast treat that feels like dessert.
