INGREDIENTS FOR ONE BATCH
-
1 banana (mashed)
-
1 1/4 cups organic old fashioned oats
-
2/3 cup unsweetened coconut flakes (I used Everland)
-
1/4 cup maple syrup (I use Everland)
-
1/3 cup almond or peanut butter (I did NuIt peanut)
-
1 -2 tsp organic true cinnamon
-
1/3 cup plant-based protein powder (I use Garu Black, discount code Jordan15)
-
coconut oil optional to add chocolate sauce on top
-
2 tbsp cacao or cocoa with an added splash of maple syrup for sauce
-
Preheat oven to 350ºF (177ºC)
-
Place all ingredients together in a bowl and mix well with a spatula
-
Pack mixture down firmly into a pan. (I use a 9 x 9 square pan)
-
Bake in oven for 15 minutes. Remove and let cool for 30 minutes
-
When cool, cut into bars. Store in an air-tight container or wrap them individually and throw them in the freezer for an easy grab-and-go snack
-
If mixing coconut oil, cacao and a splash of maple syrup, it will set best in the freezer versus the fridge, but both work
