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. :)

Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful your cookie bars will be.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will make the cookie bars tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the cookie bars hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Bake the cookie bars until they are just set: Overbaking will dry out the cookie bars. Bake them until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with just a few crumbs attached.
  • Let the cookie bars cool completely before cutting them: This will help them to hold their shape.

Conclusion:

Banana oat cookie bars are a delicious and healthy snack or breakfast option. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple tips, you can make perfect banana oat cookie bars every time.
