Description
These Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Bars are made using a silicone granola bar mold and they are super easy and fun for kids to eat! Great for breakfast or snacks.
Ingredients
Scale
4 medium sized bananas, the riper the better
1/2 cup melted coconut oil, use refined if you don’t want it to taste like coconut
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup coconut sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F. Place your granola bar molds (I used these ones) on a large baking sheet. There is no need to grease the silicone molds, but you may need to grease if using aluminum. Add the bananas to a large bowl and mash well. Banana bread is best when the bananas are super ripe! Next, add the coconut oil, eggs, coconut sugar, vanilla, almond milk and maple syrup to a large bowl and mix until combined.
- Next, add the remaining dry ingredients and mix again until everything is well combined. Add in the chocolate chips and gently fold them into the batter. Use a 1/4 cup scoop to scoop batter into the granola bar mold. The batter should settle on it’s own into the mold.
- Bake banana bread bars until cooked through and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Bars will also feel firm once done.
- Let banana bread bars cool in the mold for 10 minutes and then transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool the rest of the way.
