Here are some tips to make delicious Banana Nut Cheerio Energy Bars:
- Select ripe bananas. They are the stars of this recipe that provide natural sweetness.
- Use fresh or toasted walnuts for a satisfying crunch. You can toast them in a skillet over medium heat until fragrant.
- Don't overwork the batter. Over-mixed batter results in tough, chewy energy bars.
- Fold the energy bars in plastic and freeze them for an hour before cutting. This will make them easier to handle.
- Feel free to experiment with different add-ins. Chocolate, granola, or raisins will add interesting flavors.
