You know when you reach that point in your life (which we all have at some point) when you fall off the healthy eating wagon and a cheat meal drags on to a full cheat week or weeks! This is pretty much what happened to me! So to convince myself to get back on track, I made these Granola Bars. They are perfect for a quick breakfast or a mid day snack. The Banana gives it a soft texture with a nice crunch from the walnuts and a dash of cinnamon with each bite… yum!
2 cups oats1/4 cup raisins3 ripe bananas1/3 cup maple syrup1 cup walnuts2 T coconut oil2 T almond butter1/4 cup flax seedsFirst place the bananas, maple syrup, almond butter and coconut oil in a food processor and mix well until a smooth paste forms. Set aside.
Mix all the dry ingredients in a bowl and start pouring the banana mixture over the dry granola and keep stirring as you go.
Mix well until all the dry ingredients get wet.
Line a suitable baking tray with baking paper and pour the granola mixture into it. Smooth out the top and place in a 180C preheated oven.
Bake for 25-30 minutes.
Cut it into desired shapes before it cools and gets hard to cut.
You can eat it hot or allow it to cool..
