Ingredients
  

For the Batter
  • 4 medium ripe bananas opt for the softest, spotted bananas for the best flavor
  • 1/2 cup maple syrup ensure it’s runny for easy mixing
  • 1 cup oat flour can be replaced with almond flour for a nutty flavor
  • 1/2 cup natural peanut butter using runny peanut butter helps avoid a crumbly texture
For the Add-Ins
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips consider dark chocolate for a richer taste
  • 1 teaspoon flaky sea salt sprinkle on top before baking for a delightful finish

Equipment

  • 8x8 inch baking pan
  • Mixing bowl
  • Spatula

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking pan with coconut oil or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas until smooth, leaving some small chunks for added texture. Mix in the maple syrup and peanut butter until well combined.
  3. Gradually incorporate the oat flour into the banana mixture. Stir gently, then fold in the chocolate chips.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt over the surface.
  5. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean with a few moist crumbs.
  6. Let cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then slice into squares and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
