BANANA OAT BREAKFAST BARS



Banana Oat Breakfast Bars image

A quick and delicious breakfast bar. I make these for my daughter and husband to get them fed and out the door quick in the morning. I have made these with a variety of combinations of dried fruits. You can also try diced carrots or parsnips in place of the cranberries for a nice change. Its an easy way to sneak veggies into a kid's diet!

BANANA OAT COOKIE BARS



Banana Oat Cookie Bars image

I tried playing around with a few recipes, and this is the one that worked out the best for my family. It's a light cookie; I found that making it into bars worked better for me, since I only had one hand and could not spoon them onto a cookie sheet. I also used a food processor to mix the batter to make it quicker and easier to do while holding my daughter. :)

Time 25m

1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1 3/4 cups oats
1/2 cup walnuts (optional)

Tips:

  • Choose the right bananas: Use very ripe bananas with brown spots for the best flavor and sweetness.
  • Use old-fashioned oats: Old-fashioned oats provide a heartier texture than quick oats or oat flour.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can result in tough bars.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough for at least 30 minutes helps to prevent the bars from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the bars until they are just set: Overbaking can result in dry bars.

Conclusion:

Banana oat bars are a delicious and healthy snack or breakfast option that can be easily made at home. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a batch of these wholesome bars that are perfect for on-the-go eating. Whether you enjoy them plain or add your favorite mix-ins, banana oat bars are a great way to start your day or satisfy your sweet tooth.
