Tips:

  • Use ripe bananas: Overripe bananas are sweeter and have a more intense flavor, making them ideal for baking. They also help to keep the bars moist and chewy.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the bars tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Press the bars firmly into the pan: This will help to prevent them from crumbling when you cut them.
  • Bake the bars until they are just set: Overbaking will make them dry and crumbly. A toothpick inserted into the center of the bars should come out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
  • Let the bars cool completely before cutting them: This will help to prevent them from falling apart.

Conclusion:

These low-fat oatmeal bars are a delicious and healthy snack or breakfast option. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a nutritious and satisfying snack that the whole family will enjoy.
