Banana-chocolate granola bars
Prep: 15 minCook: 40 min
Ingredients
- 3 bananas (ripe)
- 3 Tbsp nut butter (e.g. peanut, cashew)
- 2 Tbsp coconut oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 Tbsp maple syrup
- 3 cups fine oats (or quinoa flakes (gluten free))
- 75 gr (1/2 cup) pecans or any other nuts
- 2 Tbsp chocolate drops
- 2 pinches of salt
- 1 tsp chia seeds
- 1 tsp flax seed
- Melted chocolate for decorating
Instructions
- Smash the bananas with a fork
- Add all moist ingredients into a bowl
- Now add all dry ingredients and mix everything well until everything is moist
- Preheat the oven to 150°C (302°F)
- Put a baking paper inside a rectangular baking dish (approx. 20x30 cm / 8“x12“)
- Add the dough to the baking dish and press it down well (e.g. with a spoon)
- Bake for 30-40 minutes
- Let it cool off, take it out of the dish and cut it into bars
- If you like the bars crispier, you can now bake them a 2nd time for approx. 15 minutes (this is what I did)
- Now decorate the bars with melted chocolate and let them cool off
