Banana Raisin Oatmeal Bars
You can eat one of these bars every morning and not feel the least bit bad. Plus, they are really quick and easy to make, which seems to be my theme these days.
From: quinoakaleandexhale.com
2 cups gluten-free oats
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 tablespoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon cloves
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon maple syrup (agave would probably work well here too)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup unflavored almond milk (or whatever type of milk you prefer)
2 frozen bananas, thawed (you can also use very ripe bananas if you have some you need to use up)
1/4 cup raisins
Preheat oven to 375.
Mix all dry ingredients in a bowl. Add all wet ingredients to dry. If using frozen bananas microwave for 30-45 seconds then mash into the mixture with a fork. Add raisins last.
Grease a glass baking dish, I used cooking spray. Dump mixture into baking dish.
Bake for 20-25 minutes or until bars become firm.
Serve once cooled with a big glass of black tea or coffee.
