Got overripe bananas?
Tired of the same old banana bread you resort to every time you have overripe bananas?
I was. So I decided to try something new for breakfast.
Peanut Butter and Banana Oatmeal Squares
- 1 1/2 cups quick cooking oats
- 1/2 cup peanut butter (I used crunchy!)
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 3/4 cup whole milk
- 1 egg
- 2 ripe bananas, mashed
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 2 tablespoons of ground milled flaxseed (optional)
Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl, then spread evenly into baking dish.
Bake 20-25 minutes, or until edges are golden brown.
Let cool, then cut into squares.
This is delicious all by itself, but I recommend enjoying it topped with vanilla yogurt and fresh sliced bananas. And bacon. Always bacon.
