I did half milk formula and half cows' milk for a couple of days, just increasing the amount of cows' milk. Blending it with banana is not going to get them used to the flavour of cows' milk.

They don't actually have to have any milk at this age. They can get calcium from many other sources.

Yeah she still likes to have it as a comfort thing I think I'm after ways to bulk up the day for her to drop naturally.

She doesn't not like cows milk she has it with cereal every day has done since 6 months just isn't fond of drinking it.

We started mixing formula and milk, slowly increasing the portion of cows milk and reducing formula (in the same bottle). We did it slowly as were not in a rush to do it. So maybe over a month (with some illness thrown in as well).
