Ingredients

8 servings

2 cups old fashioned rolled oats
1 cup whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/2 cups milk (I used unsweetened vanilla almond, but any kind will do nicely)
3 tablespoons honey ((or more if a sweeter bar is preferred))
2 tablespoons peanut butter (creamy or crunchy—I used natural creamy)
1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 medium banana (quartered and diced)

Steps

Place rack in the center preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly coat an 8x8 inch square pan with cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, stir together the oats, whole wheat flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt.
In a separate large bowl, combine the milk, applesauce, egg, honey, peanut butter, and vanilla.
Pour the dry ingredients into the wet mixture and stir to combine. The batter will be very wet.
Fold in the diced banana, then pour into the prepared baking pan.
Bake for 35 minutes or until thickened and golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool, cut into bars, and serve.
