Print Pin

  • 1 1/4 cups rolled oats (see notes re: grinding oats before adding to mixture)
  • 1/4 cup quinoa flakes
  • 1 tbls chia seeds
  • 1/3 cup raisins (or sultanas, currants, or any dried fruit)
  • 2 ripe large bananas mashed (makes approximately 1 cup)
  • 1 tsp vanilla bean paste or extract
  • Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees C (350 degrees F)
  • Line a baking dish with grease proof paper
  • Combine all ingredients and add to baking dish. Using the back of a spoon even out the mixture.
  • Bake for 40 minutes or until golden. This produces a chewy bar in the centre. If you prefer a crunchy bar extend the cooking time

Depending on your child’s chewing ability add the dry oats to the blender or food processor before adding the the mixture for a finer consistencyTry adding spices like cinnamon, nutmeg or ginger. Seeds & nuts would also be greatIf you don’t have the a little enough baking dish just keep the mixture up one end. It won’t run

Will keep in the fridge for a couple of day or suitable to freeze
