preparation
-
Preheat the oven to 175 °C and line a rectangular baking pan (approximately 23 x 33 cm, or a normal baking sheet will also work) with baking paper.
-
Combine the rolled oats, SHEKO vanilla powder , and flax seeds. Carefully stir in the banana, nut butter, and eggs. Add the honey, dried fruit, and nuts, and mix everything into a compact dough . If the mixture is too runny, simply add a few more rolled oats; if it's too thick, a splash of milk will help.
-
Spread the dough evenly in the baking pan or onto the baking sheet. Bake in a preheated oven for 12-15 minutes . It's done when the surface is firm and the edges are golden brown.
-
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes . Cut into bars and let cool completely in the baking pan. Then your homemade protein bars will be firm enough to remove.
