For the Base
  • 2 cups Rolled Oats Instant oats can be used for a smoother texture.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Peel and mash 2 ripe bananas in a mixing bowl until they reach a smooth, creamy consistency.
  2. In the same bowl, combine the mashed bananas with honey or maple syrup, almond milk, peanut butter, and vanilla extract.
  3. Gradually add rolled oats into the wet mixture, stirring until everything is evenly blended.
  4. Gently fold in the dark chocolate chips, ensuring even distribution without overmixing the batter.
  5. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) while you grease or line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  6. Spoon the batter into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
  7. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20–25 minutes until golden brown.
  8. Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and let the bars cool for about 10 minutes.
