The delicious recipe
Why is refined sugar not healthy for children?
Many products for children contain a high level of refined sugar. However, a healthy breakfast for children should not contain too much sugar, as sugar can contribute to obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular diseases.
In Austria, one in three children is already overweight due to excessive sugar consumption. Consequently, this leads to an increased body mass index (BMI) in most children.
For this reason, we want to contribute to healthy nutrition for children. Our products contain 30 to 50% less sugar than conventional cereals or breakfast products and are therefore an ideal alternative for a healthy breakfast.
Alternative sweetener: bananas are deliciously sweet for children
How can I replace sugar when baking? Bananas are a great alternative to conventional sugar.
Whether in banana bread, muffins or pancakes – they taste delicious everywhere and the sweetness of bananas is an ideal replacement for household sugar.
Ripe bananas contain a lot of natural fruit sweetness, they are rich in vitamin B6, magnesium and potassium.
A little tip – one banana replaces the sweetness of about 100 g of sugar (depending on the degree of ripeness of the banana).
Why is a healthy breakfast so important for children?
During the night, the body uses up a lot of reserves to help the body and mind to recover. That's why breakfast is essential for children: it replenishes their energy levels.
Children are at different stages of development and growth depending on their age. To optimally support this, a healthy diet plays an important role.
When a healthy breakfast is eaten, the brain and muscles are activated and boosted. So, your child is ready to start their day!
According to a study, one in three children in Austria goes to school without breakfast. If your child leaves the house without breakfast, it can quickly have a negative impact on your child's concentration and performance.
That's why there should be enough time in the morning to enjoy a healthy breakfast or chocolate-chip muffins.
