I love eating these baked oatmeal bars straight out of the oven for breakfast with yogurt or cutting into bars, letting cool in the fridge and grabbing on the go when I need that bit of energy. I love that they’re soft as opposed to crunchy and keep you going for hours while being full of flavour, fiber and protein.
The recipe is a rough guide so feel free to play around with the ingredients (try peanut butter, nuts, seeds, fruit etc even dairy free chocolate).
Baked Banana Oat Power Bars
Prep time:
Cook time:
Total time:
Serves: 6-8
Power up with these breakfast bars.
Ingredients
- 3 cups certified gluten free oats
- 2 mashed ripe bananas
- 2 cups dairy free milk (I love to use rice for baking because its the sweetest non-dairy milk, and I find I can add less sugar or sweetener to the mixture overall)
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 tbsp ground flax (let sit with 4-5 tbsp of boiling water for a few minutes if you have the time, as it thickens it up to act like an egg)
- A pinch of salt
- 1/4 cup maple syrup or sugar/ sweetener of choice
- 3 tbsp liquid coconut oil
- 3 tbsp brown rice or hemp protein powder (can easily omit)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180°c and grease a baking tray or dish.
- Combine all dry ingredients before mashing the bananas and adding to the mixture along with the rest of the wet ingredients.
- Mix well before pouring batter into tray and baking for 30/35 minutes!
