4 Ingredient Banana Bars
Acck - what to make when you have ‘more than a couple’ of ripe bananas…and you don’t need to freeze anymore ripe bananas? Well, that was the kick off to this super easy recipe. What a great clean way to enjoy a snack or a breakfast on the go!
4 Ingredient Banana Bars
Special Note: With only four ingredients, with one being salt, chances are good you have all of these ingredients. Oh - I guess if you include 2 tbsp water, these technically have 5 ingredients…
Ingredients:
6 ripe bananas
4c oats
1tsp cinnamon
1/8tsp salt
2tbsp water
Optional: 1/2c chocolate chips…or any other bit or bite you want to add…blueberries are also a terrific addition :)
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
With a fork, mash the bananas in a large bowl.
Now add the oats, cinnamon and water and mix together.
Place the mixture into a silicone baking pan (as in my photos), or a pan lined with baking paper, and press down firmly with the back of the fork to compact it into the baking pan.
Bake for 20 - 25 minutes.
Remove from the oven and let cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing.
Store in a sealed container, or wrapped, at room temperature for a few days or can be frozen.
