Fruity Oatmeal Bars

During the week I prefer a fuss-free breakfast that I can grab and go. Mornings are busy right so let’s make them easy with these fruity oatmeal bake bars!

What I love about this recipe is that it all goes in 1 bowl to 1 pan! We start with mashing an overripe banana (the riper it is the sweeter!) then add in the oats (I use GF from Trader Joe’s) eggs, oat milk, strawberries, and few chocolate chips because everything tastes better with chocolate, right?

Growing up I was never a big oatmeal fan, but I have grown to love it so much now! I bake with it often in muffins, cookies and energy bites!
Did you know that Oatmeal can help lower your blood pressure, is a great source of soluble fiber as well as protein and carbs!? It is really a powerhouse of a nutrient!


This recipe is so versatile so feel free to use any fruit you like, blueberries, raspberries, apples……the mashed banana should stay as it is part of the natural sweetness. No refined sugars here please!
