Tips and Tricks
Use overripe bananas for extra sweetness
If you want to eat healthily and avoid sugar and sweeteners, there is no better thing to use than overripe bananas. They are a lot sweeter than normal bananas, so they act as a natural sweetener in baking recipes! This is one of the best alternatives to sugar and sweet syrups. Another idea is to use dates instead of sugar, since they are very sweet naturally. In this recipe, overripe bananas will work perfectly to sweeten your blueberry baked oat bars.
Switch up the fruits and toppings
Instead of using fresh blueberries, try switching it up. You can try fresh strawberries and raspberries, which will perfectly complement the banana! Also, you can switch the coconut shavings for some almonds! Just think about your favorite sweet toppings, and add them to this recipe. That way, you will never get bored with eating the same old breakfast bars all the time!
Make it in advance
As we already mentioned above, these breakfast bars are the perfect recipe to make in advance. True, they only take about half an hour to prepare, but sometimes you are in a rush, and even that is too much time to waste. Nevertheless, it is important to not neglect your nutrition and still find time for a healthy breakfast. So, make these oatmeal breakfast bars in advance, and keep them in the fridge for up to three days. What’s more, these bars are the perfect snack to grab on the go and keep in your bag for when you are ready for breakfast!
