Banana, Chocolate and Cardamom Oatmeal Bars

16/03/2019 by Richard Makin

 banana, chocolate and cardamom oatmeal bars

These guys are your quick fix breakfast – all in one! They’re soft, moist and light but packed with good stuff and zero refined sugar. This recipe works well with coconut flour in place of the plain flour, so if you’re coeliac then you’ll be chuffed with this one!

I use dates and pecans but feel free to replace these for your fave nut and dried fruit. These last about five days if stored in an airtight container, so make them on a Sunday and keep them for your daily grab n go breakfast!

Nor do you have to go to the Bechamel region of France and make a REAL bechamel sauce (anything made outside of Bechamel is actually just a “sparkling white sauce”).⠀
