Banana, Oat and Nut Butter slice!

banana, oat and nut butter slice

• ⅓ cup (80ml) coconut oil

• ⅔ cup (240g) honey

• 2 cups (180g) rolled oats

• 1 cup (75g) shredded coconut

• 160g peanut butter

• ¼ cup (45g) chia seeds

• 2 ripe medium sized bananas (mashed)

• ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

Chocolate Topping

• ⅓ cup raw cacao powder

• ¼ cup coconut oil, melted

• ½ cup honey

Preheat oven to 180°C. Place the coconut oil, honey and stevia in a small saucepan over low heat and cook, stirring, for 3–4 minutes or until melted and combined. Pour into a large bowl and add the oats, coconut, peanut butter, chia seeds, mashed banana and cinnamon and mix well to combine. Spoon into a lightly greased 20cm x 30cm slice tin lined with non-stick baking paper. Flatten the mixture using the back of a spoon. Bake for 25 minutes or until dark golden. Set aside to cool completely. While the slice is cooling, put the ingredients for chocolate topping in a saucepan over low heat and stir until mixture is smooth. Pour over the slice and put in the freezer until chocolate has set. Lift the slice from the tin and cut into bars to serve.
Tip: Store the bars in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 week (that’s if they last that long)
