Easy Energy Bars
Ingredients:
- 4 ripe, organic bananas
- 3 cups rolled oats, not quick
- 2 teaspoons aluminum-free baking powder
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon or pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 cup coconut flakes or shredded
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 1/3 cup chopped nuts (optional)
- coconut oil
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Mash bananas well in mixer, then add all other ingredients and blend well.
Place dough on a 12 x 16-inch jelly roll pan that’s been greased generously with coconut oil. Pat out the dough into a rectangle about 1/3 inch thick.
Bake at 350 degrees for approximately 18–20 minutes. Cool on rack 15 minutes, then cut in bars. Store in airtight container and refrigerate.
Note: Before or after baking, you may brush or drizzle a generous amount of melted coconut oil on top of the bars for an extra energy boost.
