Granola & Coconut Yogurt Banana Pops (with Spoon Cereals)

Granola & Coconut Yogurt Banana Pops | coconutandberries.com

I’ve been asked more than once recently if I could recommend a good packaged granola and have had to answer, “no” (I can recommend “rawnola” though!). Almost all granolas out there are filled with ingredients which don’t do us much good and which I certainly don’t have any desire to eat.

I make my own granola fairly often but know not everyone is interested in doing the same, or maybe, just like me, like to keep a packet of good-quality cereal in the cupboard for when you’ve run out and need an emergency cereal fix or quick breakfast.

Spoon Cereals is definitely a company I feel happy to recommend.

Spoon Cereals Cinnamon Granola Review

They’re a very new company but set to go far it seems – already having secured investment from Deborah Meaden on BBC 2’s Dragon’s Den!

Annie and Johnny are the team behind the company, two cereal enthusiasts believing that breakfast should not be ignored and definitely should not be boring!

The Spoon Cereals range currently consists of 4 products:  Fruit + Nut Muesli, Peanut + Apple Granola, Cinnamon Granola and a Granola/Muesli Mix.

I was lucky enough to get my hands on a bag of their award-winning Cinnamon Granola. This stuff is exactly what I expect from a good granola- ultra crisp, a nice balance of sweet, spice and salt, and very very moreish! I definitely appreciate the short, whole foods ingredients list too [Jumbo oats, Coconut flakes, Hazelnuts, Maple syrup, Rapeseed oil, Vanilla extract, Cinnamon, Salt].

Spoon Cereals Cinnamon Granola

My favourite way to enjoy granola, as boring as it might sound, is simply with sliced banana and non-dairy yogurt or homemade almond milk, but sometimes it’s nice to shake things up…but not too much.

These Granola & Coconut Yogurt Banana Pops are basically my favourite breakfast with a little twist in presentation! 

They’re practically as quick to make as pouring a bowl of cereal but do make the morning meal especially fun!

Halve your bananas and stick them on lollipop sticks or skewers, dip in coconut yogurt, roll in cinnamon granola and munch! I froze the bananas when making them for the pictures but actually prefer them fresh (especially now it’s turned cold!). You must use coconut yogurt if serving them fresh though as it’s so thick that it doesn’t drip everywhere.

 Spoon Cereals products aren’t stocked all that widely yet, though I have no doubt they’ll be all over the place before too long. For now, check out Harvey Nichols stores across the country or see here for a list of London stockists. You can also buy online directly from their website.

Also, if you’re a fellow Londoner, keep an eye out for their regular pop-up events.

    It’s like a banana split- but with coconut! (which only makes it better)

      haha, exactly! You could totally add a chocolate drizzle too 😉

    Emma, JEEEZZZZ you’re killin’ me with these. I’ve got to make these tonight I think and I’m ready for bed ;-(
    Maybe tomorrow? Good gosh those look scrumptious ♥

      I’ve had many moments like that when reading blogs before bed! I’ve had a few late-night baking sessions because of it! Hope you enjoy!

    Love your banana pops - what a great morning idea. I bet kids would go crazy for them! As far as the company Spoons Cereal - their granola sounds fantastic. I love when the ingredient list is short and the ingredients get to talk for themselves. Hopefully this is something I will see in stores soon, as you said, it’s nice to sometimes have a emergency stash in the cabinets. Thanks for sharing, I’ll be trying the banana pops for sure!

      Thanks Sam - definitely a kid-friendly recipe! Drizzling them with a little chocolate would definitely entice the kiddos too.
      Spoons Cereal is SO good. I’m not sure I can be trusted around the bag!

      Thanks Marie. They were fun and yum!

    These are sooo adorable Emma! I don’t like bananas though :(. But oddly enough, even though I don’t like bananas, these still look so delicious..the fact that there is coconut cream all over the banana and granola on top…2 things I DO love, makes this look exceptional. I love that it is a dessert, but super light and healthy at the same time. Great recipe!!

    • Coconut and Berries says

      November 12, 2014 at 9:42 pm

      You and me both on the coconut and granola!
      I didn’t like bananas for years (in fact NO fruit at all) so I do sympathize. Maybe you’ll flip a switch and suddenly start enjoying them like me :)

    they do sound like fun - I was imagining that they would be frozen but without freezing they are so quick to make - and that is great to find a really good muesli - so hard to come by if not from your own kitchen. I keep meaning to make it and getting sidetracked but we are still into smoothies right now.

    • Coconut and Berries says

      November 12, 2014 at 9:43 pm

      I’m slowing down with smoothies now it’s cooling down but sometimes still make them for dessert rather than breakfast!
      Hope you give these a try.

    What a great new cereal - I will have to look out for the brand! And I love your yogurt banana pops. I would have enjoyed them frozen in Australia, but will join you in the fresh approach now 😉

    • Coconut and Berries says

      November 12, 2014 at 9:43 pm

      Definitely recommend Spoon Cereals - dangerously addictive stuff though!

    oh awesome. i get bored eating just bananas and now its too cold to make ice cream with it. This is so fun!

    • Coconut and Berries says

      November 12, 2014 at 9:44 pm

      Banana ice cream is pretty amazing but you’re right it’s a little cold for it now here too.
      I never get bored of bananas and granola though!

    Emma, I love this! What a fun idea. Granola + yogurt + banana is my favourite breakfast, too, but it’s been ages since I’ve had that… so I guess that’s what I making this weekend, a big batch of granola! :)

    • Coconut and Berries says

      November 13, 2014 at 11:17 pm

      Thanks Clem :) Happy granola making!
