Use fresh or fully thawed ingredients. Times are starting estimates.

Method

  1. Fill the cup

    Add 150 g cold soya milk, 120 g banana, 60 g oats and 220 g plain skyr to the NutriBullet cup, splitting totals into one-portion batches. Keep below the maximum fill line; use smaller batches if needed.

  2. Blend

    Secure the extractor blade, invert the cup, then push down and twist to run. Blend for 30 seconds, stop and check; use a further 10–15 seconds if needed. The NutriBullet has one speed, with no temperature setting. Never run continuously beyond 60 seconds; allow the motor and cup to cool before blending again. Wait for the blade to stop before removing the cup. If the mixture stops circulating, stop before opening and add some of the optional 30 g cold water, dividing extra water between batches. Serve straight away.

Keeping the rest

Best made just before drinking.

Reference values and assumptions
  • Plain natural skyr. Uses Arla Skyr Natural as a reference: 61 kcal, 10 g protein, 4 g carbs and 0.2 g fat per 100 g. Fibre is assumed zero for plain milk skyr, not declared on the label. Check your tub: brands, flavoured skyr and creamy versions can differ. Source

Recipe notes

  • Blend one serving at a time. The oats thicken as they stand, so drink it soon after blending.
  • For convenience, freeze peeled banana slices yourself. Use them straight from frozen only if your NutriBullet model allows it; otherwise thaw in the fridge first and allow that time separately. Keep fresh banana for the quickest version.
  • Use plain, unsweetened Milbona skyr. Nutrition uses Arla Skyr Natural as a reference; your tub’s values may differ.
