The best part about making these is the simple bowl to baking pan recipe.

🔪 Instructions

  • In a small bowl combine the dry ingredients; oats, almond flour, flax meal, salt, cinnamon, and protein powder. Stir together and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, add bananas and mash with a fork.  Add applesauce, syrup, 1/4 cup peanut butter and vanilla. Mix all until creamy smooth. 
  • Mix in the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Mix just until smooth.  Pour into the 8×8 greased pan.
  • Bake for 25 minutes. Then remove from oven and spread peanut butter all over the top of bars.
  • Bake for another 10 minutes or until the top is firm and just starting to brown around the edges. With my oven, I had to bake for another 7 minutes to achieve this. 
  • Completely cool in the refrigerator then cut into 9 bars. Store in an airtight container until you are ready for breakfast.
