A delicious and healthy snack bar packed with wholesome ingredients like oats, blueberries, and nuts. Perfect for a quick breakfast or on-the-go treat!

Ingredients

  • 1 medium ripe banana
  • 1 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1 cup frozen blueberries, thawed
  • 1/4 cup raisins
  • 1/8 cup pomegranate juice
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped dates
  • 1 tablespoon chopped walnuts
  • 1 tablespoon goji berries
  • 1/2 tablespoon raw sunflower seeds
  • 2 tablespoons ground flax seeds
  • Olive oil (for lightly greasing the pan)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Mash the banana: In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe banana until smooth.
  3. Combine ingredients: Add the oats, thawed blueberries, raisins, pomegranate juice, chopped dates, walnuts, goji berries, sunflower seeds, and ground flax seeds to the mashed banana. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
  4. Prepare the pan: Lightly grease an 8×8-inch baking pan with a small amount of olive oil to prevent sticking.
  5. Spread the mixture: Evenly spread the mixture into the prepared baking pan, pressing it down gently to form an even layer.
  6. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  7. Cool and cut: Remove from the oven and let the bars cool in the pan on a wire rack. Once cooled, cut into 8 equal bars.
  8. Store: Refrigerate any leftover bars in an airtight container for up to a week.
