If you’re looking for a healthy, protein packed snack to make at home, look no further than our Peanut Butter & Banana Protein Bars! Yes, they taste as good as they look????
Prep time : 40 minutes
Serves : 10 – 12 bars
Ingredients :
- 3 overripe bananas
- 1 cup peanut butter
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups rolled oats
- ¾ cup sliced almonds (or other preferred nuts)
- 1-2 scoops protein powder (we used vanilla)
Method :
- Pre-heat oven to 180C and line a reasonably shallow baking pan with baking paper (we used a pan 27.5cm x 17.5cm).
- Using a mixer, combine the bananas, peanut butter, maple syrup, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract until the mixture is very smooth.
- Then add in the oats and sliced almonds, and mix until well combined.
- Place the mixture into the lined baking pan, making sure to press and flatten it with a spatula until the top is flat.
- Bake in the oven for 30 mins, or until the bars are turning golden brown on the edges.
- Once cooked, remove from the oven and allow the bars to cool completely before cutting them.
Note: The bars can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week.
