Ingredients

Servings
  • 3 banana the riper, the better!, large, 400g
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter creamy, 120g
  • 3 cups rolled oats 240g
  • 1/2 cup protein powder can omit if desired, 62g
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract optional
  • 2 Tbsp chocolate chips 30g

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 8x8-inch dish with parchment paper.
  2. Add bananas to a bowl and mash well with a fork. Then stir in peanut butter, protein powder and vanilla. Finally stir in the oats. If adding chocolate chips, fold in half.
  3. Transfer oat mixture to the prepared baking dish and top with remaining chocolate chips.
  4. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until set.
  5. Then remove from the oven and let cool completely before slicing. Adding it to the refrigerator overnight will firm it up and make it easier to slice; the flavors will also come together more too.
  6. Enjoy warmed or chilled. I love eating these bars chilled with some greek yogurt and honey drizzled over top!
