Prune and walnut oat bars
Background
I make healthy oat and banana slices every week, which I have for breakfast or as midday/afternoon snacks. This time I created a new variation, these Prune and walnut oat bars, which are also super healthy, full of nutritious elements and provide lots of energy for the whole day. Most importantly they are vegan - having no dairy, gluten or added sugar at all.
Ingredients
- 3 ripe bananas
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- Β½ cup walnuts
- Β½ cup chopped prunes
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 3 Tbsp desiccated coconut
- 1 Tbsp coconut oil
- Β½ cup apple juice (approx.)
Instructions
- Heat the oven to 180Β°C. Line a small (22x22cm) baking tin.
- Blend the bananas, prunes and walnuts in a food processor. Add the cinnamon, ⅔ of the oats and the oil. Blitz until you get a rough mixture. Stir in the coconut and remaining oats (donβt blitz). Add enough apple juice or extra oats until you get a thick batter, but not a hard dough.
- Transfer the mixture to the tin, spreading it out evenly, then bake for 25 minutes.
- Leave it to cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack and let it cool completely.
- Cut it into bars or squares.
- Store the slices in a cake tin.
