Banana Blueberry Breakfast Bars

Hey Everyone! I got this great recipe from Fannetastic Food! Its a great recipe that I have done before. I decided to try and jazz it up a bit. Instead of muffins I made breakfast bars because I find them more portable!

Ingredients:

  • 2 C spelt flour
  • 1/2 C brown sugar
  • 1/2 C finely ground flaxseed
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp sea salt
  • 3 very ripe bananas, mashed
  • 3/4 C skim milk
  • 1/2 C plain (or vanilla) nonfat Greek yogurt
  • 2 tbsp Peanut Butter
  • Optional add ins: 1/2 C each of: walnuts, raisins, blueberries, dark chocolate chips, etc.!

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 300 (spelt bakes more quickly than regular flour!).

2. In two large bowls, separately mix dry (flour, sugar, flax, cinnamon, baking powder/soda, salt) and wet (bananas, milk, yogurt, add-ins) ingredients.


Dry..


Wet... I added fresh blueberries and an antioxidant trail mix that had a variety of nuts, dark chocolate chips, and some dried fruit like dried cherries, raisins, etc.



3. Add dry ingredients to wet, stirring until mixed.



4. Spoon into a cooking-sprayed or nonstick baking pan! Sprinkle with raw oats



5. Pop them in the oven! I baked it for about 17 minutes and stuck a knife in the bread to make sure it was finished


All done..

Delicious...
