Here is one of our favorite chocolate indulgences. This Cocoa Banana Bars contains rolled oat, cocoa powder and mashed banana.
It was specifically made for you to enjoy a sweet treat without loads of sugar and fat. This is also egg free and could be turned into diary free by replacing whole milk with almond or rice milk. It is the easiest and yummiest bars and they don't last long in my kitchen!
COCOA BANANA BARS
Yield : 20 slices
1 cup rolled oat
1 cup self rising flour
1/2 cup + 1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 cup melted butter
1/4 cup milk
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
3 medium banana mashed
METHOD
Preheat oven @ 170C and grease 9 x13 in pan.
Combine melted butter, cocoa powder, milk and banana in a small bowl.
Place rolled oat, flour and sugar in a mixing bowl, mix well.
Add wet ingredients into flour mixture, stir until well incorporated.
Spoon into prepared pan, level top with back of spoon,
Bake for 25 minutes or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.
Let sit in the pan for 5 minutes, slice while they are still warm.
