{NEW} Oatmeal Chocolate Chip + Banana Bars ?? It’s feeling like baking season!
Rainy all day here in SLC with the mountains receiving snow ?
Warm up your kitchen (and bellies) this Fall with these delicious oatmeal chocolate chip + banana bars. Very simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand.
They stay great in the fridge for several days which makes for convenient after school, or post workout snacking!
makes 12 servings
Ingredients:
3 medium bananas + extra banana slices
1/4 cup raw honey or pure grade b maple syrup
3 Tbsps. unrefined coconut oil, melted
1 large egg
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 cup ground oatmeal
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
a pinch of sea salt
1/4 cup dark chocolate chips
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees f. and line an 8×12 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
Place your 3 whole bananas into a mixing bowl and mash them using a fork.
Add in the honey/maple syrup, oil, egg and vanilla, and whisk until well incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whisk together all remaining ingredients. Add this into the bowl with the banana egg mixture, and stir gently to completely combine.
Pour your batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top and sprinkle with a few extra chocolate chips if desired. Add thin banana slices arranged equally on top as shown.
Bake for 18-20 minutes, or just until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Allow to cool completely before slicing into bars.
Keep these refrigerated for up to 5 days.
Enjoy! ❤Rachel
