Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Rolled oats
- 2 cups Unsweetened almond milk
- 1 cup Mashed ripe bananas
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened applesauce
- 0.5 cup Chopped walnuts
- 0.5 cup Chopped dates
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Pure vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Ground flaxseed
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 pinch Pinch of salt
- 0.5 cup Fresh or frozen berries (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish with a small amount of olive oil or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, ground flaxseed, baking powder, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Stir until well mixed.
In a separate bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth. Stir in the unsweetened applesauce, unsweetened almond milk, and pure vanilla extract until combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until fully incorporated.
Fold in the chopped walnuts, chopped dates, and berries (if using) to evenly distribute them throughout the mixture.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes or until the top is golden brown and firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes before slicing into squares or scooping into bowls.
Serve warm or at room temperature, and store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
