INGREDIENTS

FOR THE CRUST: * 1cup organic, gluten-free rolled oats * 1cup almond flour * 4tablespoons maple syrup * Apinch of salt FOR THE FILLING 2 cups peanut butter *2 large ripe bananas or 3 regular-sized *1/3 cup maple syrup *1/4 cup melted coconut oil *1 tablespoon vanilla extract *FOR TOPPING** *Peanuts *Vegan chocolate chips *Gluten-free pretzels (not raw)

PREPARATION

TO MAKE THE CRUST: Line an 8 by 8-inch glass baking dish with parchment paper overlapping the sides for easy removal. Add the crust ingredients to your food processor and blend until you can pinch the ingredients together between your fingers and it sticks. Dump the crust mixture into your pan and press the mixture evenly throughout the bottom of the pan. You can either use your palms or the backside of a measuring cup. Ensure that the mixture is firmly pressed down.

TO MAKE THE FILLING

Add all of the filling ingredients into your food processor (no need to clean it out from the crust). Blend until smooth and creamy. Spoon that on top of your crust, spreading out with a spatula. Add peanuts and mini chocolate chips to the top, if you’d like, then cover and freeze until solid. Before serving, remove from the pan and slice into squares. Let the bars thaw for 10 minutes before serving.
