- 2 cups rolled oats 1 cup blended into flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 scoops vanilla protein powder
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 2 bananas divided
- ¼ cup maple syrup
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 eggs
- ½ cup melted peanut butter
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- ⅔ cups chocolate chunks
Set the oven to 350°F degrees F and grease an 8x8 inch baking dish with coconut oil or cooking spray. Then add half the oats to a high speed blender and blend into a fine flour.
In a large bowl, whisk together oats, oat flour, baking powder, salt, vanilla protein powder and cinnamon.
In a separate bowl, mash 1.5 bananas, reserving 1/2 banana for the topping. Stir in the maple syrup, vanilla extract, eggs, melted peanut butter and almond milk until fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a thick batter forms. Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and top with more chocolate chips and the banana slices. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are golden and the center is set.
Let it cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm with extra maple syrup, peanut butter, or a dollop of Greek yogurt.
