Banana Chocolate Chip bars
These healthy banana chocolate chip bars is my son's favorite. Gluten-free breakfast bars that have no refined sugar, are high in fiber.

For the bars
- 4 cups rolled oats
- 3/4 cup mashed banana or 1 large banana
- 1/2 cup melted coconut oil
- 1/4 cup hemp hearts
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar
- 1/3 cup dark chocolate chips or vegan chocolate chips
For chocolate drizzle
- 2 tbsps dark chocolate chips
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking pan (I used a glass loaf pan) with parchment paper or rub down with coconut oil. Set aside.
Place half of the rolled oats in a blender and blend until you have oat flour. Add to a medium-sized bowl.
Add the rest of the rolled oats, coconut sugar, mashed banana, hemp hearts, chocolate chips, and coconut oil and mix until well incorporated.
Press the mix into prepared pan with the back of a spoon, making sure it's packed in tight.
Bake for 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and let it cool for ten minutes. Run a knife along the edges, then flip onto a cutting board.
Add the rest of the chocolate chips and melt in the microwave for 30-60 seconds. Pour over the bars. Let cool and slice.
