Ingredients
Scale
- 2 1/2 cups old fashioned oats
- 1 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- pinch of salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1 large very-ripe banana
- 3 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray an 8×8’’ baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
- Combine 1 1/4 cup of the old fashioned oats, cinnamon, salt and baking powder in a high-powdered blender and process until consistency resembles flour.
- Add milk, banana, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, egg and vanilla to the blender and process until a relatively smooth batter forms. (You may need to periodically stop the blending and scrape the edges of the blender with a spatula to make sure everything properly mixes together.)
- Stir in remaining 1 1/4 cup old fashioned oats.
- Pour batter into baking dish and bake for 30-35 minutes or until edges appear golden brown and the center is cooked through.
- Allow to cool and slice into bars.
