My breakfast peanut butter banana bars are like a cross between an oat cookie and oat cake. Perfectly soft, packed with flavour but easy to eat on the go. Thanks to the oats, they're also full of fibre so they'll keep you full all morning.
Preheat the oven to 350℉. Line a 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, add the mashed banana, or mash the banana in the bowl. Then add the egg, brown sugar, peanut butter, canola oil and vanilla extract. Whisk until well combined, at least 1 minute.
Add in the oats, baking soda and salt. Fold together until almost combined with a spatula. Then add the chocolate chips and fold until just combined.
Pour the batter into your prepared pan and bake for 24-28 minutes or until the centre is set and the edges are just starting to turn lightly golden in colour. Allow to fully cool before slicing. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days and enjoy!
