Chocolate and Strawberry Baked Oats
This baked oat recipe is a staple in my house and one I love to prep on Sundays. I eat off it all week for breakfast, and my kids love to snack on it after school. Loaded with protein and fiber, these baked oats are sure to keep you full and satisfied throughout the day, not to mention full of energy!
Ingredients: Makes 12 squares
2 mashed bananas
About 4 c rolled oats

1/4 c apple sauce
1/4 c nut butter or PB2 powder “butter” (mix pb2 and a little water to get nut butter consistency)
1/4 c maple syrup
1/2 tbsp vanilla extract
Vegan chocolate chips (I use about 2 tbsps)
Fresh Strawberry slices

In a large nonstick baking pan, mash bananas and add all ingredients, except strawberry
