Info and tips for banana chocolate baked oat bar

For this recipe you only will need a large bowl to mix all the ingredients in, a baking pan, and an oven or air-fryer. It’s super easy as the only hard part is combining everything together, then you just get to relax as it bakes!

You can substitute or add many things in this recipe: you can use any type of chocolate, nut butters, fruit, toppings… lots of possibilities. I used regular milk but you can definitely use plant milk. If you don’t want to use mashed bananas you can use apple sauce.

This is my FAVOURITE Ninja Air Fryer ever. It works so well and has so many different modes with little clean up.
