Ingredients

1 cup - peanut butter
2 - ripe bananas mashed
⅓ cup - maple syrup
1 - egg
1 tsp - baking powder
3 ½ cups - old fashioned rolled oats
½ cup - mini dark chocolate chips
¼ cup - coconut oil

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9×13" baking dish with cooking spray.
Place the peanut butter in a large microwave bowl and heat for 20 – 30 seconds until melted. If the coconut oil is in solid state, heat it with the peanut butter. If not, add it with the banana in the next step.
Add the banana, maple syrup, egg and baking powder to the bowl and whisk until incorporated. Stir in the oats until they're coated evenly with the banana mixture, then stir in the chocolate chips.
Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and smooth evenly. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until lightly golden brown and set.
Cool on a wire rack and cut into bars. Enjoy!
