Ingredients
  

  • 2 bananas (mashed)
  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein
  • 1 cup milk fat free substitute any milk
  • ¼ cup Maple Syrup
  • 1 egg
  • ¼ tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ cup chocolate chips (optional)

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven: Set the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine oats, protein powder, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Mash bananas: In a separate bowl, mash the bananas until smooth.
  4. Combine wet ingredients: Add mashed bananas, milk, egg, vanilla extract, and honey/maple syrup (if using) to the dry ingredients. Stir until well combined.
  5. Add chocolate chips (optional): Fold in the chocolate chips, reserving a few to sprinkle on top if desired.
  6. Bake: Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the reserved chocolate chips on top.
  7. Bake and cool: Bake for 20 minutes or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let it cool completely before slicing into bars.
