This banana oat bars recipe is the same as this applesauce oat bars recipe, only the applesauce has been switched for mashed bananas and banana slices. These banana oat squares are super easy to make, and they only require basic ingredients (flour, sugar, butter, oats, baking powder and salt, and bananas). This oat bar recipe is egg-free.
These oatmeal banana bars will be the perfect after-school snack for Autumn !


To make these banana oat bars, you will need to whisk together the dry ingredients (flour, sugar, oats, salt and baking powder), and then add in the softened butter. Combine using your fingers until it forms crumbs. You then have to flatten some of the mixture in a baking pan, and bake for 15 minutes.
Mash a couple of bananas, spread over the bottom of the bars, add banana slices over the mashed bananas, and sprinkle the rest of the oat crumble on top before baking for 35 minutes.
Keep these banana bars in a box for up to a week. I kept mine at room temperature.

These oat crumble bars are full of banana flavor and are super easy to make with only a few ingredients ! This recipe is egg-free.

Cook time : 50 minutes
16 servings

Ingredients :
190g of flour
150g of sugar
1/8 tsp of salt
1 tsp of baking powder
150g of rolled oats
175g of butter, softened
3 bananas

Instructions :

Preheat the oven.

In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and oats.

Add in the butter and combine (using your fingers) until it forms crumbs.

In an 8x8in (20x20cm) pan covered in baking paper, spread a little over half of the mixture, and flatten it (using the bottom of a glass or your fingers) to form the base of the banana bars. Bake for 15 minutes.

Mash two of the bananas, and slice the third one.

Take the pan out of the oven, spread the mashed bananas on the base, add the banana slices and sprinkle the rest of the mixture on top.

Bake for 35 minutes (at 150/180°C).

Let cool completely before cutting into bars.
