No-Bake High Protein Banana Bread Bars

Steps

1. 1

   In a large mixing bowl, mash one ripe banana until smooth.

2. 2

   Add the peanut butter, maple syrup, a pinch of salt, and cinnamon to the mashed banana and stir until well combined.

3. 3

   Stir in the oat flour (blended oats), almond flour, and protein powder. Mix until a thick, dough-like consistency forms.

4. 4

   Press half of the dough mixture into the bottom of a lined loaf pan or square container to form an even base layer.

5. 5

   Place the sliced banana pieces in a single layer over the base.

6. 6

   Spread the remaining dough mixture over the banana slices, pressing down gently to seal.

7. 7

   Melt the dark chocolate in the microwave or using a double boiler until smooth.

8. 8

   Pour the melted chocolate over the top layer and spread evenly.

9. 9

   Place the container in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set and the bars to firm up before slicing.
