Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 3 medium Ripe Bananas for natural sweetness and moisture
- 2 cups Oats adds fiber and texture
- 1/3 cup Honey a natural sweetener
- 1/2 cup Peanut Butter for creaminess and healthy fats
- 2 large Eggs provides structure and protein
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract enhances the flavor
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking dish with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth.
- Incorporate the peanut butter, honey, eggs, and vanilla extract, mixing until combined.
- Add the oats and mix until everything is well blended.
Cooking
- Pour the banana mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely in the baking dish.
Serving
- Once cooled, cut the banana bars into squares.
- Serve plain or with a drizzle of additional honey and slices of banana on top for added flavor.
Notes
Ensure your bananas are overripe for maximum sweetness. Let the bars cool completely before cutting for neater squares. Store any leftovers in an airtight container to maintain freshness. You can improve texture by adding chocolate chips or nuts.
