Tips:

Use ripe bananas: This will give your granola bars a naturally sweet flavor and help to bind the ingredients together.
Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will make the granola bars tough. Just mix until the ingredients are combined.
Press the granola bars firmly into the pan: This will help to keep them from crumbling.
Bake the granola bars until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through.
Let the granola bars cool completely before cutting them: This will help to prevent them from falling apart.
