Main Ingredients
- 2 ripe bananas, mashed
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas thoroughly until smooth.
- Mix Ingredients: Add the creamy peanut butter and rolled oats to the mashed bananas and mix well until all ingredients are fully combined. Stir in the chocolate chips evenly throughout the mixture.
- Spread Into Pan: Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Spread the mixture evenly into the pan, pressing it down gently to compact the bars.
- Bake Until Set: Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until the bars are firm and lightly golden on top. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely before slicing into bars.
Notes
- For a nut-free version, substitute peanut butter with sunflower seed butter.
- Use gluten-free oats to keep the recipe gluten-free.
- Let the bars cool completely to help them set and hold together better.
- Store bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
