I have been trying and testing different recipes for healthy granola bars since I started uni.
I think I have finally hit the jackpot with these.
I didn't do the usual price-up for them, but the whole batch cost around the £1 mark
So for a much cheaper and much healthier alternative to the sugar-packed supermarket definitely give these a try!
(Makes 6 muffin cases or a small baking tin)
Ingredients:
1 small banana
2 1/2 tbsp peanut butter- this can be smooth or crunchy. As it is used to stick it all together, it may be worth adding a little extra (about 1/2 tbsp) if you are using crunchy though.
2 1/2 tbsp honey
small handful of sultanas or raisins
A generous cup of oats
1 tbsp milk (I used almond)
A pinch of baking powder
Method:
Preheat the oven to 180oC.
Mash the banana until there are no lumps and add to a small saucepan with the honey and peanut butter
Gently warm it so that it all becomes melty and runny, mix to combine.
In a bowl, pour the mixture over the oats and raisins
Add the milk and stir it all together so that the oats are covered and its all sticking together nicely.
Divide between 6 muffin cases or spread out in a small tin
Bake for 20-30 minutes until they turn a little golden on top and have absorbed all the liquid.
They are best left to cool completely before you cut them up - if you can wait that long.
***you can always substitute the raisins for other dried fruit or chocolate pieces if you are feeling like a treat!***
