I am convinced that what consistently draws people to a warm cup of coffee or a comforting breakfast is the power of the morning ritual. Meet your new favorite part of the morning routine: this banana apple cinnamon faux-oatmeal. 

When making the transition to Paleo breakfast foods, focus on keeping the scents and textures as consistent with your previous routines as possible. Give this delicious faux-oatmeal, or fauxtmeal, a try and you won’t look back. The classic combination of apple, cinnamon, and nutmeg smells wonderful and is intensely comforting. It’s just the thing to start your day.

For an autumn-inspired twist, try substituting about a half cup of pumpkin puree for the apple. You could also use pumpkin pie spice instead of cinnamon and nutmeg. Any number of garnishes with work with this dish, but my favorite is walnuts.
